Chianti

With the Black Rooster as its symbol, the vineyards of Chianti go on forever. As far as the eye can see...sangiovese grapes. The roads twist east, west, north, south, with villages and vistas tucked inside of every nook and cranny. Castellina in Chianti, Radda in Chianti, Greve in Chianti...the region is brimming with small and interesting towns. Volpaia in Chianti, a village gifted to Giovanella Stanti and her husband Carlo as a wedding gift...is now a singular jewel of well-preserved history and state of the art winemaking. Step off of a quiet evening street, and behind the closed doors of a wood-fired pizzaria is bursting with life, laughter, and lemoncello.
