Following the Chiantigiana, on the side of a hill a small castle rises up between the vines. Conceived, like many other villages, to defend the peasants from raids by city lords, Castellina in Chianti was a disputed frontier land for years between Florence and Siena. It is essential to see via delle Volte (ancient medieval path), and to push the walk up to the large Etruscan tomb dating from the 6th century BC, the Ipogeo etrusco di Monte Calvario. The surrounding countryside, dotted with vineyards, is magnificent, and it was here that Léo Ferré came to settle and end his days, far from the fury of the world..
