TUSCANY PROPERTIES


CASA RAIA
MONTALCINO


Sleeps 8

Seen from the ramparts of the fortress in Montalcino, Casa Raia sits on its own promontory in the valley below. Lavish displays of Renaissance landscapes stretch past Siena to the Casentino Mountains of Florence. Awake to veils of mist slipping off of the hillsides to reveal Montalcino above. Sunny days scented with juniper, rosemary and sage end in richly embroidered night skies. Stars seem to mingle with the fireflies in the surrounding vineyards as they dance to the gentler rhythms of Tuscan life. The ancient farmhouse welcomes you to a world of sensory pleasures, while the surrounding towns speak of ancient history and art…. Dante's words resonate from every hilltop.

Discover the delights of Tuscan cuisine, served in the many gourmet restaurants of Montalcino or enjoy your own private cooking lessons. As in ancient times, wild game, mushrooms, truffles and chestnuts are accompanied by one of the premium wines of the world - Brunello di Montalcino. The famed Pertimali vintner, Livio Sasseti, a delightful, ruddy cheeked Tuscan, produces a "quintessential" Brunello - Pertimali Livio Sasseti from the Casa Raia vineyards.

The recently restored Tuscan stone farmhouse is a convenient 15 minute walk up the hill to Montalcino. It is surrounded by terraced vineyards, olive groves and woods. It is beautifully furnished with all of the modern amenities including a stereo and DVD player. The entrance hall and living room with its stone fireplace lead to the sunroom, kitchen and dining room and a half bath. Upstairs the master bedroom has a "Juliet" balcony, the double bedroom has a fireplace. There is another double and a twin bedroom. There are two baths. Outside are terraces for al fresco dining and an infinity swimming pool
