COMO Castello del Nero, Chianti, Tuscany, Italy
A towering 12th-century castle at the heart of a historic 740-acre Chianti estate, complete with vineyard, beehives and olive groves. Inside, original terracotta flooring, Renaissance frescoes and vaulted ceilings are beautifully complemented by COMO's light-toned contemporary aesthetic.
A fleet of red Vespas and vintage Fiat 500s, horse-riding, bike tours and four running trails give ample opportunity to explore; and cultural activities like wine-tastings, truffle-hunting and gelato-making classes offer an authentic slice of Tuscan life. And it's all topped off with Michelin-starred dining featuring estate-to-table produce and meaningful wellness therapies at COMO Shambhala Retreat.
