Hi Beth, you can try this site http://www.panzano.com/second-pages/top-page-eng.htm. You can also contact a guide if you have any questions.

Beth, <BR> <BR>WE stayed in Panzano this past July. I would recommend it highly. Close to all major places ie Siena, Volterra, San Gimignano but quaint & charming - We absolutely loved Panzano -its quintessential ITALY! <BR> <BR>PS We stayed at Villa Rosa - cheap, lovely & the owners were great. email me directly if you need any further information. <BR> <BR>Mary

We were in Italy in September 1998 and went to the wine festival in the main square of Panzano--a lot of fun. We thought it was a lovely town and would consider staying there if we go back. It had a couple restaurant although we didn't eat in any. It is small, though.

Panzano is a great home base for Chianti - we stayed in a B&B - they also have a sister hotel in Florence - it was great - you could walk out the back door of the B&B into Panzano. We loved Chianti - great markets, wine, etc. Go to http://www.venere.it/toscana/greveinchianti/villarosa/ <BR>
