Chianti is the charming hill-covered region surrounded by the cities that formed the cradle of western civilization.

The name "Chianti" is synonymous with excellent wines and is currently used to identify several different areas of the territory.

Chianti is the area of rolling hills that stretch for about 20 km across Tuscany (from North-South-Southeast).

"Chianti" is the area within the three municipalities of San Casciano and Tavarnelle in Val di Pesa, Greve and part of Barberino Val D'Elsa, as well as the Sienese areas of Castelnuovo Berardenga and Poggibonsi. Only wines produced within these municipalities can be named "Chianti Classico" and are certified with the famous Black Rooster symbol.

As you stand upon a hill, the view of the silver of the olive trees, the green geometry of the vineyards, the roads lined with tall green cypresses and the borders of the woods lined with yellow broom combine in a palette of colors that seem to create a unique painting.
