General Description
Visit the beautiful Chianti region with us and immerse yourself in the picturesque Tuscan landscapes you have always imagined. The characteristic ruby-red color and bouquet with violet scents are the features that reveal the identity of one of the most famous wines in the world: Chianti. This wine is the result of a wise blend of Sangiovese, Canaiolo, Merlot, and Cabernet Sauvignon grapes, originating from the hilly area that gives it its name.
We will lead you to discover the breathtaking, unspoiled landscapes that have cradled the Chianti vineyards for centuries, offering you a harmony of colors that can only be found in the hills of this region. The sounds, scents, and flavors of this land will capture your senses through a unique experience that you will live, savor, and enjoy by visiting ancient churches, medieval castles, and small villages where the rhythm of life remains unchanged over time.
The tour continues with a visit to a charming wine estate. You will join a wine tasting paired with typical local food. Then, you’ll move to another winery in the heart of the Chianti Classico area, where you will enjoy a second wine tasting and extra virgin olive oil. The tour will end in San Gimignano, where it started.
