Azienda Agricola GIACOMO MARENGO Palazzuolo - Monte San savino (AR) ITALY Tel/Fax +39-0575-847083

The farm extends to the hills between Siena's and Arezzo's towns facing the Sienese cretes. The landscape is very charming: secular oak, cerris and chestnut woods alternate with pinaster pineforest, the silver colour of the olive plants gives sometimes the way to the regular rows of vineyard. In the watercourses, whose bottom can be reached on foot, by horse or by 4WD cars, sparkling streams flow (which are often destination of excursions). The landscape is definitely wild and pleasant for the alternation of the so different colours. The farm centre, where offices and cellars are, is in a place called Capraie, 4 km from Palazzuolo village which is still in Arezzo's province but 200 m. from the boundary with Siena.

To reach us, you have two main choices: from Siena you reach the farm taking the superhighway Siena-Bettolle. At kilometre 17th leave the superhighway and follow the marking for Arezzo-Bucine; after 200 m. you find a crossroad (the "Colonna del Grillo"); turn right towards Palazzuolo and after approximately 8 km uphill you reach the farm centre, easily recognisable for its structures on the right, and its offices and company store on the left.

For those arriving from the North, it is better to leave the highway Autostrada del Sole (A1) in Firenze Certosa, turn on the right to take the superhighway Firenze-Siena; once in Siena, go on in Siena bypass following the markings for Perugia which take to the aforementioned superhighway Siena-Bettolle (the farm is approximately 90 km from the Firenze Certosa highway exit). Arriving from the South, leave the highway A1 in Valdichiana and follow the markings for "Siena sopra" (the farm is approximately 40 Km from Valdichiana highway exit). From Arezzo, the easiest way to reach the farm is leaving the Autostrada del Sole (A1) in San Savino's Mount, turning on the left towards the downtown. Once in town, go on towards Gargonza-Palazzuolo. Once in Palazzuolo drive approximately other 4 km to reach the farm centre, easily recognisable for its structures on the right, and its offices and company store on the left. The farm centre is approximately 15 km from the highway exit.
