Casale Santa Lucia

Castellina in Chianti stands on top of a hill, at the border between the Florentine and the Senese Chianti Classico. Its beautiful town center has a few little jewels you might discover simply walking along its narrow ancient roads, like the main medieval church and Via delle Volte. This is a very impressive arched passage leading along the eastern walls of the village with an amazing view of the countryside. Home as well to charming art and jewelry shops, and restaurants with stunning long valley views.

Just a few minutes north of Castellina is the only triangular town square in Italy — and another worthy stop — the town of Greve. Dont’ miss the butcher shop or bakery, both world class.

Distance from Casali di Casole: 40 km.

Radda in Chianti

Radda in Chianti is in the heart of the Senese Chianti Classico region. A part of its ancient walls is still preserved, and the most ancient tower still stands in front of the gardens in the town center. The historical center is the charming main square, as in most medieval villages, and its walkable alleys develop like rings out and around the heart of town.
