There is nothing more exciting than flying over our territory with a helicopter, you will appreciate the vastness of our estate, you will see the expanse of the photovoltaic fields that hide and how man did to supplement his intervention in unspoilt nature.
With this ancient means of locomotion you will enjoy a panoramic view of the valley of Valdarno. The currents and the silence of being on the heels bring you into an exhilarating experience.
Accompanied by experts, you will see the different steps that turn simple grapes into fine wines and the vats, barrels and barriques that make this possible. A special tour, which ends with tasting our wines and savouring the result of a hundred-year history.

It’s not the first ancient abbey to be reincarnated as a boutique hotel in Tuscany, but Badia di Pomaio might just be one of the most stylish. Sequestered high in the hills over Arezzo, this gently landscaped estate looks suitably timeless (if you ignore the sleek valley-viewing infinity pool) but step inside the sandstone building and you’ll be wowed by how designer Ilaria Miani tempers its rustic materials with stark statement features. The restaurant refreshes traditional Tuscan fare, the bar serves with invention and rooms are as restful as they are refined. Those who delight in detail will find themselves right at home here.
A stone bridge leads to the perfectly restored and preserved ancient medieval village of Il Borro, the heart of a luxury hotel whose accommodation is spread throughout the village. 38 exclusive suites, furnished with chic simplicity and equipped with all comforts, are located in a completely authentic setting. Each of the discreetly luxurious suites reflects a facet of the village’s charm. Staying in the medieval village allows guests to experience true village community spirit, meeting up in the piazza, strolling the stone paved alleys and shopping in the artisans’ workshops. The Conciergerie located in the centre of the village can help guests with suggestions for making the most of their stay.
