One can still see vestiges of its ancient origins in the square brick tower, with its compelling merlons jutting against the sky, and in the walls still standing erect, as if providing protection for a treasure of inestimable worth.
The Castle was built on the Via Francigena , ancient via maestra , or main route, uniting Canterbury with Rome.
The beginning of the second millennium saw this route travelled by thousands of pilgrims on their voyage to the Holy City , as Europe was crossed by a multitude of souls in search of the perduta Patria Celeste , or lost Heavenly Fatherland. This route, not only bearing testimony to the importance of medieval pilgrimages, was also a road of intense commercial exchanges, used also by armies for their movements.

Today the castle is a marvellously exclusive villa, where one breathes an atmosphere rich with history. Finely restored to preserve its original historical and architectural characteristics, it is an ideal place for feeling in touch with the past, while at the same time enjoying all the comforts of an exclusive and noble residence.

The castle's strategic position among the surrounding gently rolling hills offers a truly one-of-a-kind panorama looking out over the vineyards, olive groves, fields and forests of Chianti. Yes, here you will find yourself in the midst of the wine-producing area famous the world over, both for its artistic and natural marvels, and for its eno-gastronomic wonders.
In fact, this very estate gave rise to the red wine "Chianti Putto Fattoria di Cabbiavoli", produced from red grapes with a predominance of Sangiovese and a small quantity of Cannaiolo.
A highly-appreciated extra-virgin olive oil is also produced here, obtained, using the cold-press process, from the fruits of this rich terrain.

The castle's main façade opens out onto a large terraced lawn, where a stately magnolia tree and numerous vases of colourful flowers appear suspended in air and in time.
In fact, the grounds of the castle are perched on top of a small hill, and here in the garden one enjoys a magnificent sense of space and freedom while taking in the panorama of the surrounding countryside.
Descending to a lower level, on one of castle's bastions, one arrives at the edge of the large swimming pool, just another one of the castle's perfect spots for carefree moments of relaxation, surrounded by breathtaking views. Complementing all of this is the lovely outdoor "limonaia", or conservatory, furnished as a glassed-in sitting room, where one can comfortably enjoy the fresh perfumed air of the countryside.

The perfect location for celebrating weddings, there is also an adjoining chapel, part of the castle's original structure.
The castle, as a whole, offers the ideal backdrop for unforgettable moments in a spectacular, intimate and exceptionally private setting.
