CLOISTER OF PALAZZO DEL CAPITANO
In Montepulciano, in the Renaissence Piazza Grande (the main square), just behind the Griffin and the Lion well, you’ll find Palazzo del Capitano, the ancient Law Court in Montepulciano, where there were the jails of Montepulciano. Inside, just behind an ancient wood door on the right side of the main corridor, there are quite hidden the stairs that will bring you directly to the “La Bottega – Montepulciano”. Here outside you will find the historical cloister and its timeless atmosphere.
PALAZZO RICCI’S COURT
Built for Cardinal Giovanni Maria Ricci in the 16th century, this splendid palace will welcome you in its courtyard, from which you can enjoy a breathtaking view of the countryside of the Valdichiana Senese and Val d’Orcia. Home to many generations of the Ricci family over the centuries, today it houses the European Academy of Music.
TERRACE OF VICOLE DEL LEONE
Few steps from Piazza Grande there is a secret corner of beauty: the panoramic terrace located at the end of Vicolo del Leone, just of the right side of the Municipality Building of Montepulciano. The walls of the historic buildings protect this pretty square, which for the occasion of Calici di Stelle in Montepulciano becomes the highest living room in town.
OPEN GALLERY OF SAN BIAGIO RECTORY
In front of the temple of San Biagio, a masterpiece by Antonio da Sangallo, there is the Canonica, an elegant late Renaissance work with a double loggia and five large arches. The colors of the evening warm the travertine walls and accompany the tastings with a unique spectacle, given by the perfect combination of man’s work and natural landscape.
