Descend into a centuries-old Chianti Classico estate for a private barrel-room tasting and an unhurried walk through sun-drenched vines. This is Tuscany as it was meant to be savoured — slowly, with exceptional wine and zero crowds.
What to expect
A private driver-guide collects you and winds through cypress-lined roads into the heart of the Chianti Classico DOCG zone. The estate cellar is cool and atmospheric — you taste four to six single-vineyard wines alongside seasonal Tuscan antipasti. The winemaker often joins to answer questions directly. The return journey takes in a hilltop village panorama at golden hour.
Good to know
Best paired with a morning port of Livorno or La Spezia. Book the private vehicle and guide directly through a vetted local specialist — confirm the estate visit is genuinely private and not a shared group. Wear comfortable shoes for the vineyard walk. Confirm all-aboard time and leave a 30-minute buffer.
