Chanti: Traditional Villages & Historic Recipes

Surrounded by castles and fortified towns, Gaiole’s wine-making culture has seeped into its history, as witnessed in the grand Castello Di Brolio – the largest of Chianti’s vineyards. It was here that Baron Bettino Ricasoli invented the unique Chianti formula the 19th century.

From here, you can access Tuscany’s most stunning cities. Florence, Siena, and even Rome are easily accessible from vineyard hotels in Chianti, as are some of Tuscany’s most popular wineries. Just south of Chianti is Castello Banfi, a sprawling castle complex which has been producing a splendid variety of wines from regions all over Tuscany, which you can sample on a winery visit.
