PROPERTIES - Characterized by the charm you would come to expect in villa ownership, the buildings of Borgo Syrah, which reside on the winery's extensive grounds, comprise a farmhouse and its related outbuildings, all part and parcel of an ages-old farm that later was utilized to complement the workings of the winery. Today these seven properties encompass the bulk of the resort, which has been transformed into several private well-appointed apartments and three magnificent country houses, all of which feature fractional vineyard ownership. Each dwelling consists of a blend of the rustic and the contemporary, custom designed by one of Italy's premier designers who also happens to be a co-owner of the winery. This fact alone signifies the level of attention relegated to the design and restoration of the property. The apartments range in dimension from 70m2 to 220 m2. They will have bathrooms and fully fitted kitchens as well as radiant heating systems and will be equipped with air-conditioning units. The renovation project has focused on enhancing the original structure and making the most of the all the original features such as the double height floors and frescoes. Rows of vines mark the landscape towards which the apartments face, in conjunction with olive groves, clusters of century old trees, and a scattering of fruit trees, which comprise the gardens surrounding the Borgo. Each residence features a private garden, and a select few offer a private terrace. In addition, all of the apartments maintain parking spaces for two cars (covered or open).
