Description from owner
Description
The watermill “Il Molinaccio”, near the renaissance town of Montepulciano, was already present in the old maps of the Granduchy of Tuscany . The original building, duly and let me say passionately restored, now reopens as a luxury country house where the guests may spend their time, in absolute quietness, surrounded by a colorful garden, bordered by century old oaks, our fruit grove and the vineyard.
In front of the villa, positioned among the walls of the old trench where the water was collected and, via a channel, sent to the watermill, there is the new infinity swimming pool.
It is not a normal pool chlorine, but a swimming pool cleaned with salt, that of Volterra Salt mines , the same used by the Etruscans . This disinfection system is a lot more healthy, no chemicals added. Among the advantages : less red eyes , the tan is better maintained and of course it is easier to swim. The water taste slightly and pleasantly salty.
The small forest is crossed by the river Salcheto, along which we have realized a walking footpath with natural bridges, good for plenty of exercise or relax, on the wooden handmade benches, enjoying the natural landscape. 3D targets, representing local animals, have been positioned along the river, upgrading it to a fully fledged Field Archery Range, where professional and amateurs may try their capabilities or learn this ancient sport with the help of a skilled trainer.
Il Molinaccio is by and far its 3.6 ha vineyard, whose grapes are used for our Rosso di Montepulciano DOC , named Il Golo, and for La Spinosa, our Vino Nobile di Montepulciano DOCG.
Our marc is distilled into Grappa di Vino Nobile ( by the prestigious Nannoni distilleries) and we produce Il Finocchiaccio, alcoholic infusion of wild fennel harvested at our estate ( by Capalbio Liquori).
In order to fulfill our green spirit we have decided to start the certified transition to organic farming, which will be completed in the next years, we purify the water of our well, making us auto sufficient, and we have installed a photovoltaic plant that covers all our energy needs and let us offer free recharge for their electric vehicle to our guests.
Dinner is on request but have a try. Edy and Alessandro will surprise you with good local dishes full of the produces of our orchard. Our fruit is transformed in jam, good for breakfast or as filling in our pies.
On request we may organize Truffle search & find walks
Last but not least have a look to the fine posters, printed between WWI and II, placed on the walls of the spacious dining room.

Response from the owner Gentile cliente, sono profondamente dispiaciuto del fatto che Il Molinaccio non sia stato all'altezza delle sue aspettative. La nostra è una azienda agricola vitivinicola che ha aperto da poco più di un anno un'attività agrituristica e pertanto stiamo apprendendo sul campo come sia difficile compenetrare esigenze diverse e spesso contrastanti dei nostri ospiti. Fortunatamente la larga maggioranza di essi risulta ampiamente soddisfatta di quello che gli offriamo ma questo non vuole dire che quanto è gradito a molti sia buono per tutti. E' la prima volta che ci viene indicato che la stanza con l'idromassaggio sia rumorosa e questo ci fa apprendere che dobbiamo meglio comprendere, prima dell'arrivo, quali sono le esigenze dei nostri ospiti, senza lasciarci prendere dal desiderio di dare ciò che riteniamo il meglio. Infatti quella stanza è a mio avviso la migliore per tante ragioni, non ultimo la vasca idromassaggio, le dimensioni, l'accesso autonomo sul giardino, il letto con baldacchino, l'ampio bagno, l'accesso immediato alla sala da pranzo, ma probabilmente chi preferisce una soluzione appartata può apprezzare maggiormente il cottage in giardino, sotto la grande quercia. Alessandro, con la collaborazione della moglie e la figlia, preparano il buffet delle colazioni e le cene, come deve essere trattandosi di un agriturismo e non di un ristorante, utilizzando ove possibile i nostri prodotti, senza alcuna improvvisazione ma attingendo alla loro tradizione culinaria appresa alla scuola dei loro genitori e nonni, genuinamente toscana e con piatti orgogliosamente fatti in casa. Tutti, nessuno escluso, hanno sempre spazzolato i piatti presentati a conferma della qualità e della bontà di quanto proposto. Il percorso di tiro con l'arco è a disposizione dei nostri ospiti, non l'accompagnamento o lezioni di istruzione, ma sempre e gratuitamente quando anch'io o Alessandro decidiamo di tirare, invitiamo tutti i presenti al Molinaccio, con Alessandro che da bravo arciere si prodiga a spiegare ai meno esperti i segreti dell'arte. Le pulizie infrasettimanali non sono previste nella nostra offerta di soggiorno, ma a richiesta vi provvediamo con un supplemento. Il suo giudizio severo ci aiuta a crescere professionalmente e speriamo di averla ancora come nostro gradito ospite . Marco Il Molinaccio di Montepulciano
