Montescudaio, a small romantic inland town approximately 12 km from the sea, already had a special importance in the past because of its position. Today also you can enjoy an outstanding panorama from the church square and especially from the “La Guardiola” viewpoint. On clear days you can see as far as the valley of the River Cecina and the blue of the Tyrrhenian Sea, with its islands Capraia, Gorgona and of course, Elba. Just off the church square you can wander round the narrow alleyways, looking through arches and doors for typical wine-cellars. In the centre of the town you can discover restaurants that tempt the palate with typically Tuscan delicacies as you taste one of the many D.O.C. Montescudaio wines. The land around Montescudaio is rightly famous for the production of wine and the wine producers present their labels proudly at the annual Wine Festival which takes place on the first weekend in October. Numerous annual fairs and sporting events are held.
