Dinner in the Chianti Vineyards Experience the ancient farmer’s tradition with a dinner in the vineyards

A unique experience designed to give you only the best of what the Chianti region has to offer in its various declinations: the history, the landscapes, the wine and culinary traditions and the incomparable atmospheres. A star-lit dinner right inside the vineyards will give you the chance to immerse yourself in the ancient farmers’ tradition and live an experience of the sens-es, soaking up the air, the colors, the flavors and the smells of the country-side. Other than enjoying a delicious typical dinner of local products and dishes, you will be surrounded by the splendid and charming landscape made of vineyard rows, which so quaintly characterize the Chianti region. The dishes that you will taste, all made of fresh local products, are the fruit of the hard work and care for the land that local producers have been ex-ercising for centuries. Upon your arrival you will be given a glass for you to carry along the visit of the farm’s wineries and thus enjoy a number of wine tastings on this small-scaled wine route. You will then visit the estate’s historic chapel and finally head for dinner, the evening’s main event. The dinner location will be set to offer you maximum quality and cosiness, as it will be decorated with candles and torches. Not only the gentle sounds of the earth and the vineyards will accompany your dinner under the stars, but also a harmonious musical background, which will perfectly match the succession of dishes. You will taste “pappa al pomodoro” or “ribollita” (both typical recipes from the people’s folklore) and a barbecue of meat and fresh seasonal vegetables of the farm. Let yourself get carried away by the warmth and fragrances of the barbecue and the perfumes of the grapevines, which will inebriate your dinner experience. The rural yet ele-gant scenario of the estate will perfectly frame and complete your evening.

Enjoy a magical evening in the Chianti region and live the unfor-gettable experience of a dinner in the vineyards. Start off by visiting the farm’s wineries and tasting some delicious wines, after which you’ll visit the farm’s historic chapel and enjoy an outdoor barbecue accompanied by music and a delightful atmosphere.
