Chianti Tuscany
The green heart of Tuscany, art, food, and folklore in one of the most beautiful regions of Italy.
Linking Siena with Florence, an expanse of green rolling hills and unspoilt valleys, Chianti is famous for its red wine which is sold world wide. The produce of the countryside best represents the Tuscan cuisine: wild boar, pigeon, quail, Chianina beef, Cinta Senese pork, cold meats, mushroom, olive oil.
Numerous events in Chianti: the Palio horse race of Siena, local markets, Wine festivals and evening concerts, held within the walls of the Medieval castles.
