Pieve Aldina

Radda in Chianti, Italy

Set along the Chiantigiana wine route between Florence and Siena, this property captures the essence of Tuscany, surrounded by rolling vineyards, olive groves, and countryside views.

Property Overview

On the Chianti hills between Florence and Siena, Pieve Aldina is a former episcopal summer residence with frescoed suites, Italian gardens, and views lined with cypress trees. Restored in its original blond stone, the property blends cloisters, porticos, and frescoes with a clean, contemporary design.

Twenty spacious rooms and suites, set across three historic buildings, open onto sweeping views of the Sienese countryside. Surrounded by olive groves and embraced by quiet seclusion, the estate offers an ideal setting to unwind and fully surrender to the calm of Chianti.

Gastronomy celebrates the dolce vita and the richness of Italian flavors across distinct settings: a 1950s-inspired wine bar, a garden-view bistro with a panoramic terrace, or convivial long tables set amid golden wheat fields under the Tuscan sky. A strong choice for culinary travelers, wine lovers and those seeking an elegant but understated base to explore Chianti.

Restaurant + Bar

Italian gastronomy is showcased in a variety of settings.

At Pieve Aldina, different moments of the day take place in different settings. Italian gastronomy is showcased in a variety of settings, from a traditional enoteca and bistro to large tables surrounded by olive groves and vineyards. Chef Niccolo Pini’s cuisine draws on traditional Tuscan ingredients and techniques. Dine at Le Rondini, where the Florentine chef revisits the ancient culinary traditions of Tuscan cuisine, including Panzanella Tradizionale, the famous fresh Pici, the delicious fresh local pasta, not to mention Fiorentina di Chianina, Florentine beef, all seasoned with the best Chianti wines. Every day, Chef is inspired by the Tuscan territory and what it offers him best: truffles, seasonal vegetables, wild herbs, and game.

At L'Enoteca, immerse yourself in the Italy of the 1950s at a traditional enoteca. At any hour of the day, you'll be able to pick up a gourmet selection of local wines, cheeses, and cured meats–a glass of Brunello di Montalcino paired with items like salami with fennel seeds or herb-infused pecorino. You can also sit down at Mamma’s table d’hôte to sample her freshly made pici and gnocchi, as well as her marvelous almond cookies, to be enjoyed with a glass of Santo, a sweet local wine. Spritz and prosecco, the spirit of the Italian aperitif, are served in the parish priest's garden in fine weather, and in the enoteca in winter. The barman creates special recipes with seasonal products.
