Organic Winery Tour in Chianti with Cellar Roof Views

This organic winery tour in Chianti Classico starts on the roof of the cellar, about 600 metres above sea level, with the rolling hills spread out below. A member of the family-run team introduces the history of the estate and of its Chianti Classico Black Rooster.

Next you walk into one of the vineyards, where the work of organic farming is explained, and then into the cellar. There you hear about the harvest, how grapes are selected, fermentation and ageing, each step in detail.

The last stop is the tasting room. A short tasting course shows you how to smell, taste and serve wine, and then you try all five products of the estate.

• Red, white, rose and sparkling wine
• Cheese, salami and bread
• The estate's own extra virgin olive oil

Guests curious about grappa can learn how it is made and taste it. Gluten-free options are available. The last stretch of road is unpaved and runs through forest, so follow the directions closely. Minimum age is 18.
