The black rooster is the historical symbol that the pool of Chianti Classico producers has chosen for this famous wine. Indicatively, the Chianti Classico is produced in that part of Tuscany stretching between Florence and Siena namely the Chianti region.

However, the wine produced in the Chianti area is not automatically qualified as Chianti Classico: actually, that of geographical origin is only one of the many requirements a wine has to meet in order to qualify as such. First of all, it is essential that it be made mainly from the Sangiovese grape (minimum 80%), the vine traditionally cultivated in that part of Tuscany. But you can learn much more about Chianti Classico during a wine tasting experience in a holiday farm in the Chianti district.

You cannot say your holiday in Tuscany is complete if you explore the region just with your eyes. Wash down your meals with a good glass of Chianti wine and participate in some wine tasting events: you will refine your senses and learn to identify and appreciate different smells and aromas.
The Sangiovese grape, which can be defined the essence of Chianti Classico, tastes differently depending on the climate and the terrain where it is cultivated. During your stay you will, therefore, have the opportunity to taste various Chianti wines with different aftertastes: a floral bouquet, tobacco aroma or the perfume of soft fruits. And if you are looking for a unique way to celebrate a special event, why do not you toast with some Chianti Classico Riserva?
