Wine Relais In Montecucco is set in the historical heart of Monte Amiata, Val d’Orcia and the Tuscan coast, where an ancient 14th-century village has been carefully brought back to life and turned into a wine relais. Vineyards, cypress trees, olive groves and the wide Ombrone Valley do most of the seducing, with even Montecristo said to appear on the horizon on clear days.
The setting is wonderfully complete. There is a consecrated church, a large park, a panoramic pool, fitness area and the restaurant
I Granai, where Tuscan cooking is shaped by the estate’s organic philosophy and local produce, including vegetables from the property’s own garden. It is the kind of place that invites long lunches and very unhurried afternoons.
Guests can arrange tastings not only at ColleMassari itself - named Winery of the Year 2014 by Gambero Rosso - but also at Poggio di Sotto in Montalcino and Grattamacco in Bolgheri. Add thermal baths, biking, trekking and the Maremma Regional Park within reach, and this becomes a very strong pick for couples, families and anyone after a slower, more scenic side of Tuscany.
