Guided tour of the less known Chianti

A guided tour entirely dedicated to Florentine Chianti, starting from Impruneta and arriving in Greve in Chianti. Impruneta represents a real window on the Chianti; Greve is the heart of it, with its welcoming square surrounded by arcades, which has always been a marketplace. Our guide will also take you to discover more intimate places: the small fortified village of Montefioralle, perched on a hill overlooking Greve and surrounded by a magnificent panorama—is certainly not to be missed; it is worth visiting the parish church of San Leolino whose foundation dates back to the 10th century. The itinerary continues towards one of the many castles of the area (Verrazzano, Vicchiomaggio, Uzzano) whose presence reminds us that Chianti has always been first of all a place of contention and clashes between Siena and Florence. Having laid down their weapons, today the castles converted into wine farms, open their doors to visitors: it is possible to stop by the cellars and taste the best of their Chianti wine production.
