Description

The Poggio al Casone, wine estate extends over about 40 hectares surface, on the sweet slopes of the Pisan hills leaning on the Tyrrhenian coast.  This estate joins our list of best hotels and resorts in Tuscany - an elegant retreat that will be especially prized by those seeking the finer things in life.

The owners produce one of the best wines in Tuscany on this 40 hectare estate using organic methods, and so the guest quarters are immersed in spectacular vineyards stretching in all directions around the property.

The main villa of Poggio al Casone dates to the nineteenth century.  It is located in the estate’s centre on a hill (the “poggio”).  The estate has two other guest houses. The apartments have been built according in the Tuscan style and furnished under the supervision of some of Tuscany's top designers, who have chosen exclusive furniture, and who have paid painstaking attention to  detail.  The result is a luxurious, elegant harmony throughout.

The vineyard is cultivated through organic methods, according to the natural agriculture’s philosophy and it embodies a major landmark for several research projects aiming at saving and integrating the human being-plant-animal balance. 

During your stay we can organise walks along the hills, visiting ancient villages and a variety of "secret" places with stunning vistas that only local people know.
