Chianti Classico Wine Tour
Chianti Classico area is one of election tops of Tuscan wine, where the complexity of Sangiovese grapes and other native varieties express its best characteristics of great elegance. The area, located between Florence and Siena, with its beautiful landscape of vineyards, olive groves, small medieval villages and farms, has been worked with wise patience by men who have been living
here from centuries, giving us glimpses of that recall Renaissance paintings.
Our trip will give us a full day between medieval towns, walks in the vineyards and visits in historic wineries
tasting wines that have made the history of these areas “lulled” by unique landscapes. The choice of the wineries will be
linked to the major theme of recent years: traditional Chianti Classico wine or more international flavour wine. Comparing two wineries we understand
how the wine has changed over the last 20 years.
