This was our first retreat of its kind, created together with and our friends and Vanni of . It turned out better than any of us had hoped.

Slow breakfasts that drifted towards noon.
Massages on the terrace, with the valley below and the sun going down.
An afternoon in medieval San Gusme, as guests of Lorenzo and Daniela.
Castello di Brolio, where the story of Chianti Classico began.
And every evening, one long table under the pergola.

Thank you, ladies, for the energy you brought. And thank you, Małgorzata, Lorenzo and Daniela, for making it work from the very first time.

Some days in Tuscany are better left unplanned.

Stay by the pool, take the long breakfast, open the wine a little earlier. Tomorrow you can go exploring.

Who would you spend a day like this with?

October in Chianti has a light of its own — golden, low, unhurried. We just wrote about why it might be the best month to visit: fewer crowds, still-warm afternoons, and a front-row seat to L’Eroica if your timing is right. New post on the blog, link in bio.

There's a particular kind of light that settles over Chianti in October — softer, quieter, with most of the summer crowds gone. We've just written about why this might be the best month all year to visit us: the weather, the empty roads, even a quiet week for guests who bring their laptops.

You could go somewhere today.

Or you could stay exactly where you are.

Both are perfectly good ways to spend a day in Chianti.

We’ve always believed that the places we remember are made of little things.
A beautiful breakfast table. Coffee poured slowly. Fresh herbs and fruits from the garden. A wine discovered nearby and brought home because it was simply too good not to share.
This is how we want to welcome you at Podere L’Aquila.
Not just with a place to stay, but with all those small details that make you feel you belong here — even if only for a little while.
What makes you feel truly welcome when you travel?

Siena, a winery, a drive through Chianti — and then back here before sunset.

Podere L’Aquila is made for days out in Tuscany and evenings you don’t need to plan.
