Our stay at Il Molinaccio di Montepulciano was nothing short of magical. This secluded and unique winery, which also serves as a charming B&B, provided the perfect escape for relaxation and rejuvenation. The property’s history as an old mill has been beautifully preserved, and the renovations have transformed it into a luxurious country house that retains its authentic charm. It’s obvious that the owner Alessandro poured his heart into keeping the history of this property alive. The surrounding landscape, with its centuries-old oaks, orchards, and vineyards, created an atmosphere of tranquility and connection with nature. We thoroughly enjoyed the company of our host Lizzle, who made us feel at home with their warmth and hospitality. Lizzle’s South African roots added a unique touch to our experience, and her delightful breakfasts were a highlight of our stay. While we didn’t have the opportunity to book the entire villa for our family and friends, we were still able to take advantage of the shared kitchen and facilities, which added to the communal and welcoming vibe of Il Molinaccio di Montepulciano. In summary, our time at Il Molinaccio di Montepulciano was truly unforgettable. The combination of the idyllic setting, warm hospitality, and the opportunity to experience the region’s renowned wine and cuisine made for a once-in-a-lifetime experience. We cannot recommend this hidden gem highly enough!

We were a family of 10 that spent a week this past July at Il Molinaccio. Coming from different parts of the U S, Alessando and his staff prepared a delicious Tuscan dinner for us. The setting, the staff, and the location could not have been better. You are in the wine country and only a 5 minute car ride to the center of Montepulciano. The reason I give it a 4.5 instead of a 5 star rating is as follows. The screens on the doors and windows are broken, the umbrellas up by the beautiful pool do not open or close. Also some bug zappers should be installed on the outside patio as not to get bitten. These are all small issues that I hope will be taken care of before our next visit. If so this is a 5+ villa to rent. Grazie e Buona Fortuna Ron Fontana & Family
