THE ESTATE

Set in heart of Tuscany among the rolling hills of San Casciano in Val di Pesa in the province of Florence, Tenuta la Poggiona is a private estate and an organic, regenerative farm.

50 hectares of wild beauty — vineyards, olive groves, and unspoiled land – are home to this young and dynamic female-led chapter, carrying forward the legacy of Chianti Classico terroir through a slow and conscious approach to hospitality, where curated experiences take center stage.
