Montespertoli
The Commune of Montespertoli covers an area equivalenit to 125.02 sq.km., over some of the characteristic hills of Central Tuscany which form part of the Chianti area. The chief town sits 257 metres above sea level, 25km from Florence and is equidistant from the touristic centres of San Gimignano, Siena, Pisa and Volterra.
