Exploring Tuscan Castles in Italy | Castello Di San Fabiano | Kirby’s Grand Italian Tour

As our Grand Italian Tour continues, the time has come to venture outside of Florence in search of quality, craftsmanship, and tradition. I have rendezvous with my good friend Michele Calzolari, who will be my traveling companion for the rest of the trip through Italy.
On what has begun as an exquisite morning, what better way to explore the beautiful Italian countryside than in his vintage Mercedes SL convertible.

We are traveling towards Siena, just a little under 50 miles south of Florence, to Monteroni d’Arbia, to visit the historic Castello San Fabiano, a magnificent 13th century castle owned by Michele’s close friend Benedetto Fiorentini. Operating as an exclusive Airbnb, Benedetto has kindly offered to allow us to stay with him and his family during our time in Tuscany.

The property is amazing, and I am really looking forward to hearing him share with us some of the incredible stories about the castle, the local region and, of course, his family’s distinguished history – one that has been part of the fabric of the region for centuries…
