About Chianti

Chianti is a hilly wine region of Tuscany between Florence and Siena, with vineyards, olive groves, cypress-lined roads and hilltop castles.

Chianti is the stretch of rolling Tuscan hills between Florence and Siena, where vineyards and olive groves cover the slopes and stone farmhouses and cypresses stand along the ridges. Its heart is the area of Chianti Classico, marked by a black rooster emblem, with towns such as Greve, Radda, Gaiole and Castellina. The wine is made mainly from the Sangiovese grape, and many estates have cellars where it can be tasted.

Top-ranked sights in Chianti: Brolio Castle (Castello di Brolio).
