One of the Best Places To Visits in Monti Frequently mentioned in reviews: Top-rated.online cuts through the clutter, highlighting only the reviews that are most helpful, earn the most likes, or come from the most active contributors. Amazing experience! A must do while you are in Tuscany. We were on the 2h30m 45€ (you can buy directly from the website) and it was totally worth it! At the end of the you get to taste 3 wines. Our guide, Vera, was great! You can find free parking right at the top near the entrance but the road is pretty narrow and bad. You can leave the car at the base, near the and climb on foot for 5-10 minutes. If Tuscany had a Tinder profile, Castello di Brolio would be the one swiping you. • 🍷 It basically invented Chianti Classico (so yes, it’s the Beyoncé of castles). • 🏰 Built in the 11th century, and still standing stronger than your Wi-Fi signal. • 🌄 Views so good, you’ll forget to pretend you’re “here for the culture.” • 🍇 Comes with a side of vineyards big enough to get lost in—perfect excuse for another glass. Visiting isn’t just a tour; it’s a mix of history, therapy, and Instagram bragging rights. A beautiful place, high up on the hills. The view is fantastic, the very good. The road to the is good and passes many viniards. WOW! We booked a private of the and it was spectacular! Our guide was so much fun. The wines were delicious and we ordered 6 to be shipped home. They arrived quickly and all intact. The provided lunch was also very delicious. We would highly recommend booking a private via their website. 100% worth it! We took the in the morning, which was full of fascinating historical insights. The visit was engaging and enjoyable. From one section of the walls, we could admire the best view we saw during our entire trip to Tuscany, perfect for taking photos and enjoying the stunning scenery. The continued with a visit to the winery, where we learned about the wine-making process. We were lucky to see the vineyards full of grapes, as it was harvest season (late September). We even watched the grapes being loaded onto tractors and taken to the winery. It was a truly beautiful and enriching experience, ending with a delicious tasting. Highly recommended! I had the best time at the master wine, class and learn so much about the family, the wines and the countryside. I would definitely visit again. Best to visit in Tuscany. The view is so amazing and the history is great as well. We book the dinner and it was really worth it with the four wines for dinner. This is a really cool outdoor of the grounds and gardens of an ancient and winery. This is a private residence so you cannot the inside, but the outdoor and are so beautiful. Our party found the produced at this to be exceptional. Beautiful place with a stunning view! Be sure to check out the Chapel at the site. Nice garden! We were fortunate that our 20th wedding anniversary day happened to line up with a sunset of the castle...it was beautiful! We had a before hand, something we'd never experienced, and it was better than expected. Matt was the connoisseur for the tasting, and he made it a relaxing and we learned a lot. After the sunset was an included dinner. We didn't really have expectations but if we had, they would have been blown. It was gourmet and delicious! Beautiful grounds and breathtaking views. The staff are friendly too! There is a small parking lot next to the and the shop (with the complimentary tasting) is not on premise. So may be worth taking some extra time ro go for lunch and a few hundred meters from the castle! What a great experience for the kids and grown ups. The kids got to go on the a scavenger hunt in the forest and learn about local trees and wildlife. Then we did the self guided and discovered a lovely where the kids played with their prizes and the hostesses were exceedingly patient. Finally we went into town for the free with our entry and the kids enjoyed a honey as well. So lovely! Beautiful with a very interesting history. You can walk around the gardens and the walls. The balcony had the best views of Chianti area. You get a free with the ticket. The staff were nice and friendly. Loved it. We did the Masterclass which was a brief of the outside of the castle, the gardens and ended with an incredible view, where the took place. We ended up buying some bottles and had them shipped. Would absolutely recommend.
