CHIANTI
Crossing over beautiful landscapes that resemble rare and unique postcards, we will arrive in the heart of Tuscany, the Chianti region. This splendid land is located between Siena and Florence, and offers us one of the most esteemed and well-known wines in the world. But the term Chianti does not only refer to wine. It is a land full of natural beauty, history, abbeys, and castles, and it is full of small, charming towns where it seems like time has stopped. We will lead you on a journey to discover its wine by visiting vineyards and wine cellars, choosing from among the most renowned producers. We will also be stopping in some of the castles, rich with history, and surrounded by splendid expanses of land for grape cultivation. Here you will have the possibility of enjoying lunch or sampling some of the wine that was already being produced in the past by noble families. Castello di Brolio is a must-see, where history claims that Bettino Ricasoli conducted numerous experiments between 1834 and 1837 in order to determine the perfect combination of grape varieties for producing the delicious Chianti wine. We will suggest to you the most characteristic towns as well as recommend our favourite restaurants where you can enjoy lunch. It will be up to you to choose how you wish to organize your day in order to make it the most unique and unforgettable ever.
