Preserving the charm of history, rediscovering the soul of a place and its essential character. New boutique hotel Pieve Aldina, part of the French group Domaine de Fontenille, stands next to the medieval village of Radda in Chianti, along the Chiantigiana, the ‘wine road’ that connects Florence and Siena. The project is signed by Pierattelli Architecture, an Italian architectural firm based in Florence and Milan, which oversaw the renovation and interior design of the spaces, preserving their original features. Surrounded by 40 hectares of olive groves, Pieve Aldina is part of the prestigious Relais & Châteaux collection and has 22 rooms and suites, an outdoor swimming pool, a spa, and a restaurant.
