Description
Explore the beautiful wine region of Chianti on a Small Group Mini van- half-day scenic tour from Siena or Florence. Enjoy a Tuscan landscape of gently rolling hills and vineyards, studded with cypress trees. Taste superb Chianti wines and Tuscan products.
Visit the Castellina in Chianti before enjoying wine tasting at a winery in the Chianti area. The beautiful ruby-red color and the characteristic bouquet with scents of violet are the special features that reveal the identity of one of the most famous wines in the world: Chianti. This wine results from the wise blend of Sangiovese, Canaiolo, Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon grapes.
Visit ancient churches, medieval castles, and small villages where the rhythm of life remains unaltered over time. Later, move on to a winery in the middle of the Chianti Classico area, where you’ll have a wine tasting alongside an extra virgin olive oil tasting.
You know the cypress avenue, the one you find on all the postcards from souvenir stores in the area and beyond? You’ll get to stroll down one of those very avenues and take souvenir photos of fabulous Tuscany. You will be able to taste wines offered by a quality winery that true connoisseurs will surely recognize, surrounded by a magnificent landscape, in a magical and pleasant atmosphere. The tour will end with a return to Siena or Florence.
