Albola is located in the Chianti hills just 5 Km outside of Radda-in-Chianti, the most exclusive village of the historic Chianti Classico. This is where the most famous Chianti wines are made, thanks to the region's exceptional climate and terroir. Reputed for its enchanting setting, the exclusive hamlet of Albola is in an area of outstanding natural beauty, surrounded by vineyards, cypress trees and olive groves. Dominated by one of Chianti’s seven castles, which dates from the 12th century, the entirely private site comprises a church and two exclusive properties. The landscape is breathtaking. Beyond the vineyards, much of the countryside is totally wild. Most of the area is classified as
a natural park, and deer, rabbit, boar and many other animals
can be spotted nearly every day. Close by, the village of Radda-in-Chianti is absolutely charming, boasting exceptional restaurants such as La Perla del Palazzo, fine food stores such as Casa Porciatti, and of course numerous enotecas and wine producers
