Set off on a private wine tour from the port of Livorno to the Chianti Region, where you'll visit two wineries in the quaint villages of Greve in Chianti and Badia a Passignano. Once your Chianti wine tasting tour wraps up, your private driver will return you to your cruise ship at the port of Livorno.
The Chianti Region is famous for its classic wines and natural beauty. This winery tour combines wine-tasting (with lunch on request) and a country drive through magnificent Tuscan landscapes, where enchanting woods blend seamlessly with vineyards and olive groves.
Visit the cellars, learn about the process of winemaking and traditional bottling methods and savor fine wines accompanied by local food. This wine growing area is located in the Tuscan hills of west-central Italy, few places better bring together a trio of the best things in life, sun, food and wine.
It is based on the Sangiovese grape and is bone-dry, high in acidity, moderate in alcohol, and displays aromas and flavors of red cherries and roasted herbs. Chianti Classico, a hilly area between the cities of Florence and Siena, is the original zone.
Spend the day tasting superb wines, sampling local specialties. Your driver will introduce you to the ageless atmosphere of medieval hill top towns and fortified castles. If you wish to share the cost of a private Chianti tour by joining a mixed group, a good suggestion is to go to “roll calls” on Cruise Critic and form your own group.
