Description
The Farm
The Farmhouse "I Sodi" is situated in the heart of the Chianti Classico among its wooded hills halfway between the village of "Monti" and the Castle of "Brolio" in a hamlet called "S. Marcellino".
It was built in 1893. Its name "I Sodi" "Hard soil" probably derives from the fact that the house stands on a stony ground wich is not tilled. The house is built in the typical local architecture with a "loggia" with arches and a loft or dove-cot from where you can enjoy a beautiful view of the "Crete Senesi" and further on the "Monte Amiata".
The Wine Cellar
"I Sodi" was built in a symmetrical shape: a central part and two perfectly equal wings. Later on the right wing was enlarged and that is where all the wine processing takes place now.
