Italy: Borgo San Felice, Tuscany

A Wine Hamlet in the Heart of Chianti Classico

Borgo San Felice occupies an entire hamlet at the center of a working Chianti Classico wine estate in Castelnuovo Berardenga, its 30 rooms and 30 suites finished with exposed beams and muted, traditionally Tuscan tones, most looking straight out over vineyards and olive groves. Villa Casanova, recently renovated into three fully equipped apartments accommodating up to 18 guests, gives larger families and groups a private base within the estate.

Il Poggio Rosso, the resort's Michelin-starred restaurant, puts a modern spin on Tuscan classics under chef Fabrizio Borracino, drawing on the hotel's organic kitchen garden and its own farm-raised meat and poultry; Osteria del Grigio offers a simpler alternative. The spa, housed in a former olive press, runs a full menu of anti-aging treatments with Comfort Zone and Anthology products, and guests can round out a stay with vineyard tours, wine tastings, and hands-on cooking classes covering everything from pasta to Florentine-style bread.
