Description
On the rolling hills of the Black Rooster, in the very heart of Chianti, between Radda, Castellina and Vagliagli sits Pornanino, a lovingly restored farmhouse surrounded by 36 hectares of olive groves and wooded hills. The rivers Arbia and Serchio mark the boundaries. Franco and Lia Lombardi are part of the breed of neo farmers migrating from major cities in search of a slower-paced lifestyle where basic values of life are emphasized in everyday living. Franco Lombardi has taken on the role of producer of top-quality olive oil with great passion and conducts weekly seminars and tastings on the subject. Franco and Lia have carefully restored the main house and two stone built barns, Capannino (4-5 people) and Leccino (2 people), renovated to excellent standards and appointed with the same warm style as their own home, with antique furniture enhancing beamed ceilings and cotto floors. Capannino and Leccino can be rented together
