An ancient town of just under 3,000 between Florence and Siena, picture-perfect Castellina In Chianti is set in the wine-famous Chianti Hills. The many wonderful sights include the imposing 14th-century Rocca (Fortress), offering spectacular views of the town and surrounding countryside, the 16th-century San Salvatore church and the Via delle Volte medieval arched passageway. Just outside of town are the pre-Roman Etruscan burial tombs of Monte Calvario and the Necropolis of Poggino.

FAMILY PASSION The strength to realize a dream Through the dream and the work of Marco Mazzarrini , Tuscan oenologist and agronomist to Castellina in Chianti in the farm Poggio Amorelli the Famiglia Mazzarrini prodution brand was born, serving high-quality wines bottled at the source, made following the ancient tradition of Tuscan chianti in a territory naturally predisposed to select vineyards. From the vine to the bottle, everything embodies the strong values of a family that, with infinite passion and great technical expertise, expresses, in its wine, the truth of a place, its people, and its culture.
My wife and I visited for our honeymoon and absolutely loved this experience. Great wine and balsamic (we still order a case stateside when we can), great staff and the brothers were charming and informative. Plus, beautiful views of Tuscany. HIGHLY recommend when you’re in Italy.

If you run out of ideas on what to do after you have had enough wine, olive oil, culture and churches, and if your children or partner are starting to nag or get slightly bored , then this is what you want to do - “let some arrows fly” as the archer would say. Play Robin Hood and Lady Marian in the Chianti hillside! A perfect past time that can fill morning or late afternoon hours and is the thing to do for couples, small groups or families (children as of 7 years). Fabian will teach you the technics and tricks and if you are ready and feel like it will accompany you into the range for some “real shooting” . Plan 2 hours for this activity. For archery lessons reservation is absolutely required !!! , Rates: € 25/pp for 1 hrs. group lesson, private lesson as of €40/pp), archery range shooting only for experienced archers from € 10 to 15/ pp), standard equipment rental possible , warm up range. We speak German,English + Italian.
