Most of you have surely heard more than once the word "Chianti" but until you have visited it you have absolutely no idea what means... A trip to Chianti area represent a unique and unforgettable experience for everyone involved. Spending a day between fabulous vineyards and olive groves will let you understand why this wine is so famous all over the world! We will present you the most appreciated tour about wine tasting but remember that our secret is a personalized service, we give you a suggestion only, let us know your desire...
Approximatly 45 minutes of highway and then the "Wine Road" begins, crossing the fabulous Chianti area until Greve in Chianti, the most important village of this area. Here the monument to Giovanni da Verrazzano, the explorer that discovered the largest part of teh East Coast of America, Piazza Matteotti with its porticoes, the San Francesco convent and a lot of shops and wine-cellars and butchers where the most famous people of Hollywood order beef, salami and ham, the best all over the world! After Greve the top of the tour, the magnificent castle of Verrazzano, where they are waiting for you! Take a look at: www.verrazzano.com
Here you can choose to have the "simple wine tasting", a visit to the castle, to the gardens, the centuries-old ageing cellars and the wild boars that breed naturally in the surrounding woods. Then the local guide will show you the way as the wine is made and, most important will let you taste the various products of the farm, together different wines, each one to accompany different meats. The "complete wine tasting" instead offer you, after the visit of the Castle as explained above, a complete lunch based on all products of the farm each one accompany with the wine that is the most indicated to drink together... Something that you will never forget! Depending which one you decide to choose we will show you San Gimignano, Monteriggioni castle or Siena or something that is on your desire! Example, if you choose the Classic Wine tour or the Chianti Tradition one you will have plenty time to visit Monteriggioni with San Gimignano or Siena or Volterra or have a stop in Pisa on the way back. If you choose the Wine & Food experience, the visit at the winery start at 12:00 and the lunch (unforgettable anyway) finish later than 3:00 pm, so the time will be short and will allow the driver to show you only San Gimignano on the way back or Pisa in the morning.
