Villa di Geggiano, Siena, Italy
Villa di Geggiano has been the family home and winery of the Bianchi Bandinelli family since 1527. Just six kilometres north-east of Siena, its façade looks out onto the enchanting hills of Chianti Classico, a region of Italy world famous for its wines, natural beauty and rich history.  Originally built in the 14th century, the Villa di Geggiano, its gardens and 18th-century decorations have been carefully renovated and restored. The Bandinelli family continue to manage the Villa and the precious surrounding vineyards, recently opening two luxury guest suites for holiday visitors wanting to savour the real Tuscan lifestyle.
