REVIEW SCORE

Villa Castrum in La Canonica di Cortine Tuscany takes its name from the Castle (or Castrum) of Cortine, whose history was already documented in 1037. This luxury estate stands in a dominating position in the heart of the region of Chianti Classico, an area where Etruscans and Romans have fought many duels.

About the Location

Italy, Tuscany, Florence Area

Florence is an open-air exhibit of art and culture, known worldwide as the heart of the Renaissance, and the home of fine art and literature. Signature examples include Filippo Brunelleschi’s Duomo and Michelangelo’s timeless statue of David, arguably the most recognizable benchmarks of western culture to date. The romantic Ponte Vecchio, one of Europe’s last fully stone bridges, gives Florence the notoriety it deserves and a very unique flair. The vision of Renaissance men and thinkers including Leonardo Da Vinci, Michelangelo, or Dante Alighieri had a great impact and changed our literally and visual world forever, and Florence is the city where it all began: in fact, Florence gave birth to the Renaissance.

Its painting-like rolling landscape has determined rural chic, making Florence area a favorite destination for food and wine lovers, not to exclude Renaissance art ones. Hills outlined by endless rows of cypress trees, majestic castles, thermal spa towns, Lilliputian medieval villages lost amidst olive groves, compose an idyllic region that also features gorgeous emerald green seaside such as Maremma and Argentario, as well as dramatic mountains. From the fashionable Mediterranean coast to the marble mountains of Carrara, the chestnut forests of the Apennines, the Natural parks with lakes, canyons, thermal springs and grottoes, the Renaissance villas, olive groves and vines, Tuscany is a fantastic place to visit all year round. Do not miss a visit to the Vallombrosa Forest with its centuries-old trees. Also worth visiting are the hilly landscape around Rufina with endless vineyards; also the hills of Fiesole, which, just above Florence, conserve a magnificent Roman amphitheater. Local crafts couldn’t have minor position; florentine craftsmanship is famous world-round for leather, gold and wood all shaped with thrilling perfection.

Tuscany is a place like nowhere else in the world; this is the reason why this region is at the tops bucket lists all over the globe. Amazing landscapes, beautiful hilltop towns and the fantastic capital city of Florence charm everyone who decides to visit it. It is a majestic region with almost half of the artistic heritage of Italy and fantastic landscapes. Due to its mild weather, you could visit Tuscany all year round. It’s a region with exceptional art towns and hilltop villages and with a heritage of a glorious past with unspoiled nature, spectacular sea coast, and beautiful islands. Here you will taste some of the best wine varieties and then you can relax to one of its thermal spas.

The birthplace of the Roman Empire and Renaissance, Italy, showcases many of the world’s greatest artworks, architectural buildings and over the top gastronomical proposals. This is the country where the word “style” expresses the whole nation. Italy has more Unesco World Heritage cultural sites than any other country; among them are Botticelli’s Birth of Venus and Primavera, Michelangelo’s David and Sistine Chapel and da Vinci’s The Last Supper.
