The Mariani B&B is located in a characteristic village
medieval from the name of Castellina in Chianti, one of the main capitals of Chianti Classico.
The Chianti wine-growing area was delimited in 1932 by a ministerial decree and since then the borders have remained unchanged. The decree defined the production area of Chianti Classico wine as the "oldest area of origin". Since then, the current Chianti area has therefore been recognized as the original production area for Chianti Classico wine.
The origins of Castellina in Chianti date back to the seventh century BC. C.
Along the main road that follows the ridge and crosses
Castellina, there were once several Etruscan villages,
that connected the great cities of Etruria.
In Castellina many important Etruscan finds came to light, in particular the imposing tomb of Monte Calvario, which measures about 53 meters and is located not far from the town.
Along the s. s 222 leading to Siena, archaeologists unearthed a small necropolis containing five tombs, four with crypts and a small rectangular bust-shaped room. The archaeological finds are exhibited at the Archaeological Museum of the Municipality of Castellina In Chianti, which can still be visited by tourists today.
