This Italian region has created a wine which is since many centuries ago a pride of Tuscany.Chianti wine is made from grapes treated, cultured,choosing the suitable areas at altitudes not exceeding 680 meters above sea level,resulting in wines that have an alcohol content generally between 10,0 and 11.5 degrees, then it is aged for about 5-6 months from the time of harvest in the autumn until the next spring, generally up to March.
This wine obtains an intense but at the same time fine flavour thanks to the type of grape and it is called Chianti Classico with the denomination DOC DI ORIGINE CONTROLLATA.The grapes can be used to made a Chianti can be the famous Sangiovese grapes using a 70%.-95% of this grape,this kind of grape is present also in Emilia Romagna which is then produced the local wine near the hills of Romagna in Rimini and Ravenna and the low Bologna province.
Note that Chianti reproduction is prohibited using other types of grapes, of course, those who know the wines understands that is a true Chianti or not looking at its colour by the the flavour and taste.
I learnt that in an Educational Tour Operators for me was a great experience because I really learn a lot, this wine,this Chianti Classico is not just a drink, it is art, and it is chosen and elected by prestigious customers in the world who want the best years, these prestigious clients ranging from the British Royal family, the heads of state and often served on the boards of major international summits.Chianti, Tuscany,a bicycle a charming accomodation in a Villa or in a beautiful Agriturismo-Farm to discover an area rich in traditions,towns with centuries of history and art,enjoying the Chianti wine tasting and absolutely unforgettable.
