Torre a Cona Wine Estate is one of Tuscany’s best-kept secrets. Nestled in the Florence hills, with unforgettable views over the sweeping countryside, the striking 18th-century villa makes an immediate impression. Enclosed among olive groves, verdant vineyards and sturdy age-old walls, the Estate has been lovingly restored to its former glory by the noble Rossi di Montelera family. Torre a Cona produces award-winning fine wines and exquisite extra-virgin olive oil. Visit the vineyards and historic cellars to delve into the Estate’s history before tasting our produce in the poignantly restored barn, now the wine shop.
