Directions from Montalcino to Il Palazzone

On arrival at Montalcino there is a roundabout with a mosaic on it just below the medieval Fortress. Drive around the roundabout and past the Parafarmacia (green cross). Exit immediately on the right in between the BAR TERRAZZE / PARAFARMACIA and the CARABINIERI police station. The road is marked Via del Poggiolo.Follow this road past a new block of flats and the cemetery. Ignore Via del Renaio on the right.It becomes a “white road”: a bumpy dirt track. Keep driving and follow the signs that say IL PALAZZONE VENDITA DIRETTA OLIO E VINO. Do not take the first right turn. After less than a km on the right there is a tall house with an archway. Turn off to the right (you will see the estate mail box), and take the next right turn. There is wooden sign that says IL PALAZZONE. Keep to the left and drive down the cypress-lined avenue to the cellar.
