A castle of your own,
in the heart of Chianti.
Once known as Castello Il Palagio, today Castello Lapi Goretti Miniati is a medieval estate set among the vineyards and olive groves of San Casciano Val di Pesa — halfway between Florence and Siena.
Its courtyards, frescoed halls and walled garden have welcomed guests for generations. A protected historic dwelling, it remains a private estate, cared for as it has always been.
Read our storyCivil, symbolic and religious ceremonies, receptions beneath the loggia, and a party that lasts until the cypresses fade into the Chianti night.
Walk the halls and grounds with those who know them best, then sit down to the wines and olive oils born on these very hills.
From intimate private parties to corporate gatherings and gala dinners, the estate shapes its rooms and gardens around the moment.
Real couples, real celebrations — captured within these walls and gardens.
The castle is yours for the entire day. Privacy is our promise.
One family has cared for this place since 1623, for a welcome that is genuinely authentic.
