Guests can join guided tours of the cellar, enjoy tastings of local Chianti and Vernaccia di San Gimignano, and stroll through the vineyards while learning about the estate’s sustainable practices. The historic farmhouse, renovated between 2003 and 2007, houses four double rooms and five apartments, each named after family members or constellations and furnished in classic Tuscan style. Whether you’re a wine enthusiast, a history lover, or simply seeking a peaceful countryside escape, Tenuta Guardastelle provides a warm, authentic experience that showcases the beauty and heritage of the Tuscan countryside.
