Beautiful castle nestled in the surrounding countryside. Hard the climb to get there.

Poppiano Castle, located in the Florentine Chianti hills near Montespertoli, is an imposing medieval building that has endured centuries of history. Originally built as a defensive fortification, it was transformed over time into a stately residence. The Guicciardini family, among the most influential in Florence, had a profound connection to the castle: Francesco Guicciardini, a celebrated Renaissance historian and politician, spent part of his life there and used it as a base for his agricultural and political activities.

Today, Poppiano Castle is an example of how history and tradition can coexist with modernity. The property is still owned by the Guicciardini family and continues to produce high-quality wine and olive oil, preserving the region's distinctive agricultural traditions. The castle is also open to visitors, offering guided tours that allow visitors to explore its history, cellars, and surrounding vineyards.
