As for the restoration of the vineyards, also in the reconstruction of the villa the approach was that of a conservative recovery, restoring value to the architectural building aspects dormant over time: the external fixtures and windows have been recovered as well as the internal doors, the load-bearing beams have been replaced and reused for the construction of the oak and chestnut wood flooring in the bedrooms, suites and bathrooms. The avenue of olive trees leading to the entrance, the colorful and fragrant lemon garden and the slopes of shrubs and flowers positioned as if to frame small glimpses of the vineyards and the Tuscan hills create a link between the estate and the surrounding landscape. Villa Panzano has been transformed into a work of art: alive, with different interpretations and, behind it, a glorious story to be told with pride and respect, while keeping an eye towards the future.
