Detailed itinerary

A nice stop in the small town of Greve in Chianti located in the heart of the Chianti Classico wine area, and home of the famous navigator Giovanni da Verrazzano.
A little of our time is certainly due to the ancient Falorni butcher shop where we could taste some snacks of the fabulous local cold cuts and cheeses

Originally a castle in the Middle Ages, Montefioralle is truly a pearl of Tuscany, (to miss it would be a sin) with its 79 inhabitants is considered one of the most beautiful villages in Italy.
A nice stop for stroll and some photos in the narrow stone streets.

Here we are at our first wine tasting! Guests of a small producer of high quality wines !! here the production is completely manual since the harvest of the grapes, the Chianti Classico is produced in organic cetified manor! In short, high level.

The Sant’Appiano Farm has maintained over the years, the familiar character that has always distinguished it: the production and sale of the products is in fact followed by the owners, combining tradition and experience with the most modern winemaking techniques. The estate also produces extra virgin olive oil and an excellent grappa.
