Cycling through the hills of Montalbano, a region that is part of the Chianti DOCG denomination, you come across a timeless place: the Abbey of San Giusto al Pinone. This Romanesque church dates back to the 12th century, and it is said that its bell, the "Sperduta," was rung to guide travelers lost in the dense surrounding woods. Today, the imposing stone apse and its solitary naves tell the story of a glorious past, retaining a unique, timeless charm.

A beautiful village on the slopes of Montalbano. Very scenic.
