Wine tasting tour – the best wine tour near Florence

I think this is going to be the last travel post from Italy. You can find my post from Florence, here and my day in rome post, here.

The Chianti wine tasting tour was by far one of my favorite experiences from my trip to Florence. There are so many wine tours in Tuscany, but I’m convinced the chianti wine tasting tour I did was the best. When Livi’s parents visited her, they went on the same wine tour and they loved it.

The tour took us from Florence to Tuscany. You could do the wine tour in the morning or the afternoon. We booked the wine tour the day before, so we could only do the afternoon wine tour.

If you’re reading this, you may not know what Chianti means. A Chianti wine tasting tour means that the wine is produced in the Chianti region of central Tuscany. Now that I’m back home, my Mom will only buy Chianti Classico wine. FYI, if there’s a rooster on your wine, it was produced in the Chianti region. You have the good stuff then.

It was disasterous trying to find the bus terminal in Florence. The way the GPS took us was not the main way people probably go. My Mom actually was hyperventaliting because she thought the area wasn’t safe (it was fine). We finally got there, in one piece. The bus is what took us to the Chianti wine tasting tour. It was a nice small tour bus and the ride there had amazing views.

Onto the wine tours

The Chianti wine tasting tour took us to two wineries. The first of the two wine tours took us down to the barrells. They showed us how the wine is fermated and aged. It was so cool, the pictures will be below.

After that, we headed to a tasting room. The best part…the olive oil. The olive oil is to DIE for, we loved it. My Mom and I brought olive oil home and we finished it in a few weeks. At the first wine tasting tour we tried three wines and two olive oils, so good!

The second chianti wine tasting tour took had the most INCREDIBLE views. We also met so many great people on the wine tour from all over the world.

We went into a tasting room and sat at a table. They brought out a cheese plate, it was again, incredible.

We were so tired after! Of course we still pulled through for another amazing Florence dinner.
