In the heart of Terra di Siena you find a perfect, essential landscape consisting of hills, erosion furrows, the winding course of the river and cypresses which, in isolation, crown the high ground or, in ordered rows, follow the progression of the roads. On the hills, hamlets and isolated monuments of extraordinary charm overlook oak woods, olive groves and vineyards where Brunello and other great Tuscan wines are produced. To the west the landscape is closed by Monte Amiata, the highest extinct volcano in Italy. But emotion comes first and foremost from the hills. Because Val d’Orcia is first and foremost nature.
