Local Attractions near Relais Il Chiostro Di Pienza
- Palazzo Cantucci (8.45 km) - Palazzo Contucci is a beautiful building that now houses one of the best wine cantine in Montepulciano. Located on the same square as the cathedral, the palazzo was designed by Sangallo (who built the walls and many other buildings in Montepulciano) and has some attractive frescoes. It is now home to the Cantucci Enoteca (wine shop) and is a great place to stop and sample and pick up a bottle of the famous Nobile di Montepulciano wine. From 25 September-1 October 2005 Palazzo Contucciâs Salone delle Feste will host a series of piano concerts by the American maestro Malcolm Bilson.
- Montepulciano Springs (9.05 km) - The waters of the sulphurous springs at Montepulciano are well-known for their healing properties. The water is drawn directly from a source 132 metres below ground and never come into contact with air before reaching the spas, meaning that they are perfect for use in antiseptic, anti-catarrhal, anticonvulsant and antiallergic treatments. Some treatments are only available to holders of an Italian Department of Health prescription, but are there still many health and beauty treatments that are open to all, making this a great place for a spot of relaxation on your holiday.
- Gattavecchi wine producers (8.21 km) - The Cantina Gattavecchi was one of the first wine producers to bottle the famous Vino Nobile di Montepulciano. The wine matures for 2 years in old barrels located in the old convent next to the church of Santa Maria dei Servi in Montepulciano and you can take a tour of this cantina and try some of the excellent wines (including the Vino Novile and the Montepulciano Rosso and Chianti) and olive oil produced by Gattavecchi (booking by fax preferred). They also offer menus that include local ham and cheese with the wine-tasting and will soon also offer tours of the vineyard.
- Palazzo Vecchio wine producers (20.28 km) - The Palazzo Vecchio fattoria (wine producers) is a recent addition to the numerous vineyards of the Tuscan countryside. Originally inhabited by monks, wine-growing on the land surrounding the Palazzo only began in the 1950s. The current owners dedicated their energies to producing the famous Nobile di Montepulciano wine, which was first bottled here in 1990. Take a visit out to the fattoria to see the finer points of the wine-making process and to sample some of the excellent Vino Nobile.
- Chianciano Springs (11.77 km) - The healing properties of the waters in the four thermal spas in Chianciano Terme have been well-known since the Etruscans inhabited the town.

You can also take a relaxing walk through the grounds belonging to the spas or through the beautiful town of Chianciano itself.
