The beautiful Chianti Hills are a small mountain range located between the provinces of Siena and Florence, although the boundaries of the area are not clearly defined and follow those of the homonymous wine area formed in 1932. Rolling hills, often lined with countless rows of vineyards and olive groves, picturesque villages, small churches and large farmhouses ...

The towns included in the Chianti region are part of the production area of the DOCG Chianti red wine. After the creation and success of the wine area, many of these towns have added the words ‘in Chianti’ to their name, an example is the town of Greve, now Greve in Chianti, which we will visit during our Chianti wine tour from Florence.
