One of the oldest (and most beautiful) vineyards in Italy. We did not stay in the Villa, but we did…read morecome here for lunch, as well as took a wine tour with a tasting. We had heard great reviews about the restaurant- and we were able to get in the same day for lunch, despite no reservations. I ordered the homemade tagliatelle with beef ragu- the noodles were fresh and cooked to perfection, the beef ragu sauce had a good amount of meat, and was very flavorful. The best part about the restaurant is how FRESH everything is- you sit next to a garden and will actually see the chef go down and pick out fresh basil, kale, etc. for dishes on the menu. The tour itself was well organized, but seemed a little less personal than others I've been on (somewhat expected from larger wineries). I also found the 3 wines (Chianti) in the tasting to be "good", but not great. Eat beforehand because you get VERY few snacks that will not fill you up. The winery was HUGE and easy to see why they host weddings here- it was absolutely gorgeous and the landscaping was breath-taking. The views are outstanding and you won't be able to take enough pictures. You get a tour around the buildings, the room with the wine-making equipment, the wine barrels, and the garden- but you will not enter the vineyard. They gave a great little description of the history of the vineyard and the Villa (they have the official records to actually date the establishment), and I found it very interesting.

Located just a 15 minute walk from the quaint town of Greve in Chianti, this charming farm is the…read moreperfect oasis in every sense of the word. Let's break it down. Service: the staff is incredibly accommodating and friendly. They are truly locals and have great recommendations for restaurants, wineries, and activities to do in Toscana. Facility: we had room 1 which was basically an entire apartment equipped with a queen size bed, large spaced bathroom, a living room and kitchen. The decor is a bit medieval with large creaking wooden doors and a dark layout. There are many areas in this huge property: 1. the many many many rows of grapes lining the whole property on your left, right, front, back, etc. 2. There's an outdoor movie theater with bean bag chairs 3. The pool area (not heated) with plenty of chairs and umbrellas. A pool bar, a jacuzzi and a small gym with free weights. 4. A sauna 5. Farm animals: sheep, goats, roosters, ducks, rabbits, turkey, peacocks, goat, and alpacas! The alpacas, by the way, are brought over to their dining area every morning to join you while you eat, so you can pet and feed them! 6. Lastly, they have a wine shop at the base of the hill prior to entering the property where you can do a quick wine tasting. All in all, the facilities were impeccable. You can wake up early and go for a strenuous hike around the property, saying hi to all of the animals as you pass by. Then, you sit down for their buffet breakfast in their beautiful glass dining area where they cook the most delicious, soft, flavorful eggs I've ever had along with the assortment of breakfast pastries. Don't forget the alpacas! After, you can relax by the pool, jumping in when the sun gets a little too hot. Stroll through the vineyards, walk into town, or drive to neighboring wineries. Whatever you do, this hotel is the perfect place to situate yourself on your vacation in Toscana!

The cleaning person comes once per week. The view of the Tuscan countryside and the swimming pool are fantastic. It's far away enough from town to feel like you're away from the hustle and bustle but close enough to neighboring towns like Mercatale and Greve to go out for a local meal. Directions on Google Maps are confusing so when you see a beautiful villa with a gate in front - go inside of it and do not pass it. Copy and paste from their website: "Villa Licia is one of the finest estates (10 ha) in Chianti Classico. The historic renaissance Villa with its variety of Tuscan classical gardens is situated on a hill near Mercatale in Val di Pesa. Huge cypresses, vineyards, olivegroves and forest abound. Just 30 minutes under Florence city center and airport. Only 50 minutes to Siena. Near Impruneta and Greve in Chianti."

She took us to the vineyards and down to the cellar, describing the process and answering all of our silly questions. We ended up purchasing several Classico and Reserve wines which we found are not readily available in the US. All things considered it was a great deal (11-23 Euro for the Classico and Reserve respectively). The part that kills you is shipping (65 Euro for a case of 6 and 100 Euro for a case of 12) but all things considered it's still a great deal and cheaper than buying it at a wine shop in the US if you can find it. You can also purchase the adorable glasses that have their emblem on the bottom (a hedgehog!) We got the 6pm reservation which was perfect because we had dinner afterwards a few steps away. There is an amazing ristorante next door called La Cantinetta di Rignana Ristorante (check my review - in a nutshell the food and view is excellent, a great way to end the day!).
