You reach Podere Fontegallo through a 500 metre private road that leads to the electronically controlled gate with its videophone security entry system. You then pass through the gate and drive up the 100 metre long private drive lined on both sides with Cyprus trees. When you reach the top of the hill, 400 metres above sea level, you will find a parking area to the left large enough for five cars.
