There are rare and defining moments in the life of a historic property that transcend everyday operations and place it firmly in the global spotlight. We were deeply honored and humbled when the timeless magic of LaChiusa was featured on NBC’s Today Show during their inspiring “Your Life Calling” segment. This remarkable, nationally televised broadcast provided viewers across the United States with an intimate window into the authentic Tuscan lifestyle we painstakingly cultivate here in the heart of Montefollonico, surrounded by our magnificent ancient olive grove.
The Today Show segment beautifully captured the distinct essence of what makes our 18-room boutique hotel and its corresponding culinary programs so entirely extraordinary. It highlighted the deeply immersive, soul-nourishing experiences offered through our esteemed partner programs, including the acclaimed Cook in Tuscany, and showcased the unwavering dedication of our visionary founders, George and Linda Meyers. Their core philosophy of creating a restorative sanctuary where guests do not merely visit Tuscany, but truly live its history, was broadcast to millions of eager viewers, permanently affirming LaChiusa’s status as a premier global destination.
To be recognized on such a prestigious, wide-reaching national platform is a profound testament to the daily passion of our dedicated staff, the deep-rooted architectural history of our 700-year-old estate, and the unparalleled, breathtaking beauty of the Val d’Orcia region. The feature elegantly captured the joyous laughter echoing from our historic kitchens, the genuine warmth of our hospitality, and the profound joy that comes from sharing a meticulously prepared meal crafted with ingredients sourced directly from our own organic gardens. We warmly invite you to experience the very same magic that captivated the nation’s television audience.
