Montalcino is a medieval village surrounded by walls and is also the region of the famous Brunello wine. The city center is known for its narrow alleys, taverns, and artisan shops. Born as a defensive castle, Montalcino is located on a high hill, from where it dominates the Sienese territory and from which you can enjoy breathtaking views of the Tuscan countryside.
I recommend to all red wine lovers a stop in this enchanting corner of Tuscany to taste the famous Brunello di Montalcino, with more than 250 wineries to choose from. To sleep instead, I will give you here below a list of my favorite hotels:
If you like Tuscany and especially the Montalcino area, this place will be first on your wish list. I highly recommend it if you like a luxurious and charming location.
