La Corte di Lorano
This beautiful property belongs to a prestigious estate of 750 acres that produces Chianti Classico wine, and includes a castle. The property is an impressive stone-built farmhouse that dates back to the 16th century. It takes its name from the striking internal courtyard around which it was built. The property was totally restored in 2002 by its discerning owners, who used authentic traditional materials of the area and equipped it with all modern facilities.
The interiors are particularly airy and spacious, with doors both to the courtyard and to the garden. A local woman will be happy to provide exquisite cooking services with Tuscan specialities, that all clients have greatly enjoyed. Guided tours of the estate and the castle, including Tuscan wine tasting, can also be arranged. Although in a secluded and quiet location, it is only 7 km away from a highway exit and therefore is also an ideal base for trips to the Chianti area and main Tuscan towns.
