"Le Filigare"
crowns the top of a hill in the Chianti Classico region. One
has a magnificent view from the beautiful valleys of Castellina in Chianti
to the charming village of San Donato in Poggio.
"Le Filigare"
is an antique hamlet: the centrally situated main house, with the large green
courtyard in front of it, is surrounded by the smaller adjacent buildings: old
barn, farmhouses, a pretty chapel surrounded by cypresses and a garden
pavilion. The gardens are immense: neat lawns and flower beds surround the
various houses and paths; vineyards, olive groves and woods gently merge into
the open, Mediterranean landscape.
A 2 km private gravel road
leads to the hamlet. The estate stretches across 60 acres of farmland which
lies 300–400 meters above sea level. The wide view over the hills is
outstanding. The home-made wine is also excellent. The fattoria (farm) products
can be purchased in the hamlet: Chianti Classico, table wines, vintages, white
wines, Vinsanto, Grappa and olive oil.
The estate houses are all built of stone. The individual apartments are in the
main and adjacent buildings. In the design of the apartments great care was
taken to ensure a maximum of room and privacy.
Extensive outdoor areas
provide enough variety: mountain bikes can be hired, there are hiking trails on
the estate and you may stroll through the olive groves and vineyards
surrounding the farm, there is a children’s play area, hard tennis court, a
barbecue and, of course, a large pool. The pool is a proud 16x8 meters of which
a small area (4x2) is designed as a baby pool. The pool is about 300 m from the
main house – on a large, sunny plateau with a magnificent view in all
directions. You can even enjoy the magnificent view of the valley from the
water. So get those suitcases packed and don’t forget the swimsuits!
Le Filigare offers plenty of activities for it's
guests: a barbecue, a splendid garden, a small chapel, even a play area for
children. There is an area reserved just for parking.

filigare's wonderful wines and oils can be bought on the estate.
