Thursday, June 2nd, 2011, 8:07 am
The classic Chianti, or Chianti Classico, comprises the provinces of Florence and Siena in Tuscany. It expands over a large territory in the center of the region starting right above the city of Siena and expanding north towards Florence, ending not far from the capital of Tuscany. It is an area of rare beauty in Italy, where you will find many Tuscan villas for rent. The most important towns of Chianti are Castelnuovo Berardenga, Radda, Greve, Castellina, Gaiole in Chianti, San Casciano, Tavernelle, Barberino, Colle Val d’Elsa, and Poggibonsi among others. This will be an itinerary through some of these towns that should take you about four days to complete.
