Overview
Castello Banfi – Il Borgo is nestled into the homes that were build alongside the medieval fortress historically known as Poggio alle Mura. In the 17th and 18th centuries, when it became safe to live outside of the thick walls and locked gates but prudent to be close for protection. The Castello is the hospitality center of the 7100-acre (2850 hectares) vineyard estate. Guests are nurtured in a warm and refined environment with attention to detail. Culinary and cultural adventure, including cooking classes and sunset picnic, wine tastings, vineyards treks and sightseeing, as well as simple relaxation, are the hallmark of the property.
