Acquired by the Capponi
family in 1524, Villa
Calcinaia has since
grown from its four
original farmhouses to
its present dimension,
approximately 215
hectares of land
characterised by
expanses of vineyard,
olive trees and
forestland.
Located along the via
Chiantigiana, the villa
sits at the end of a
long avenue of
cypresses, nestled among
the gentle hills of the
Greve valley.
Calcinaia offers a
superb natural setting
with all the
conveniences of nearby
shopping in the town of
Greve and the pleasures
of fine wine, olive oil
and vinegar from the
family winery. Guests to
Villa Calcinaia may
enjoy the hospitality of
various agritourism
residences, apartments
in the newly
restructured, historic
farmhouses that mark the
landscape.
On the Calcinaia estate
is an ancient rectory
next to a 13th century
church, the Chiesa San
Piero which has been
renovated into two very
comfortable apartments.
