Private Chianti Classico Tour with Lunch & Tastings from Florence

Your day begins with a private transfer from your accommodation in Florence, heading into the Chianti Classico hills with your personal guide, a certified sommelier. Over the next nine hours, you will visit three boutique wineries, each selected to show you a different side of the region's winemaking traditions. Your guide will explain the production methods and the story behind each estate.

At each stop, you'll taste the winery's expressions of Sangiovese. The tastings and your lunch will be held in the tasting rooms of each winery. Across the three visits, you will sample approximately eight different wines. The selection typically includes red wines such as Chianti Classico DOCG, Riserva, and Gran Selezione, alongside Super Tuscan labels. You will also have the chance to taste one local extra virgin olive oil.

A traditional three-course Tuscan lunch is served at one of the wineries. The menu changes with the seasons but often starts with an appetizer of local cheeses, Prosciutto, and Pappa al Pomodoro, followed by a fresh pasta course and a classic dessert. This tour is a complete immersion into one of Tuscany's most renowned wine territories, guided by an expert, before your return to Florence in the evening.
