We did a short trip to Siena and stopped at San Gimigniano on the way from Impruneta -- as well as other short trips to Greve and other small towns.

I can tell you that Fattoria Viticcio makes some really good wines. We attended a Wine Pairing dinner featuring Viticcio and we got to meet Beatrice, lovely person, I'm sure she runs a very nice agriturismo.
Maybe next year...
We just stayed at a small agriturismo just out of San Casciano and found it to make a really good base for Florence, Lucca, Chianti, Volterra, San gimignano etc. Full for the summer, but consider the area. San Casciano has a couple of good restaurants.

Caralin - Sorry to hijack the thread, but do you have agriturismo suggestions for Montepulciano from your last trip? We are currently booked for a small one in Monticchiello. We wanted to see if there's one nearby Montepulciano that you suggest.

Also, we only have 2 full days and 2 half days. Aside from Montepulciano, what other towns do you recommend we see in that time?

Hope you love your trip!

Thanks, kybourbon!

Agree about not staying in San G. Too many other lovely places within day trip distance of it.
