The Heart of Tuscany: Discovering the Chianti Region

Nestled between Florence and Siena, the Chianti region is Tuscany at its most iconic

Rolling hills, orderly vineyards, cypress-lined roads, and ancient stone villages form a landscape that feels timeless. But Chianti is more than just a picture-perfect postcard; it’s a place where tradition and elegance coexist in every detail.

Exploring Chianti means discovering its small towns: Radda, Castellina, Greve, and Gaiole, each with their own character and charm. It means tasting wines that reflect centuries of care and craftsmanship. It means walking through olive groves and quiet medieval streets, guided by the scent of earth and history.

At Across Tuscany America, we offer curated stays in private villas located in the heart of this region. Imagine waking up to vineyard views, spending the afternoon tasting Chianti Classico Riserva in a centuries-old cellar, and ending your day with a candlelit dinner on a panoramic terrace.

Chianti is a destination, but most of all it is also a way of life. One that invites you to slow down, savor deeply, and embrace beauty in every moment.
