Tenuta Poggio ai Mandorli is located in Greve, the capital of Tuscany. There, visitors will find any number of good tavernas and enotecas, shops and a weekly market. The walled city of Montefioralle is a 20-minute walk from Greve. One of the most ancient villages in Chianti, the city is still very much intact. The first settlement dates from 1085. It was here that Amerigo Vespucci – the mapmaker for whom the Americas are named – was born.
Siena and San Gimignano are a 20 minute drive from Tenuta Poggio ai Mandorli; Florence is an hour away, approximately. Needless to say, there are an endless number of wineries in the area. The Trambusti Family manages the estate and are happy to help arrange tours and/or wine dinners. For more information, visit Chianti Trambusti.
