Montegonzi is a delightful hamlet of houses built around a fortified castle dating back to the twelfth century which gave origin to the charming little town of Greve in Chianti. The dominant position of the castle made it strategically important for controlling communication between Florence and Siena. In 1629 the castle was partially destroyed by the Ghibellini's guild of Siena who were fighting against the Florentine Guelfi's guild. Montegonzi is situated in quiet and panoramic location, nestling deep amidst vineyards and olive groves and offering beautiful extensive views over the surrounding landscape of Chianti shire.
