"Degustazione"
- wine tasting - is the word to watch for on the winery signposts along the
various wine routes in Chianti and Tuscany. This means that you
can taste the wine produced at that vineyard and if you like it
you can buy a few bottles. You might also want to keep your eyes
open for an "enoteca" - this is an establishment,
usually in a town, where you can sample wines from a wide variety
of local wine estates.
How to visit more than one winery, "taste" more than one
wine, and still be able to get safely from one winery to the next?
An excellent option is to hire a car with a driver-guide for
a half or a whole day wine tour. Your guide should be knowledgeable in local
oenology, be able to suggest suitable itineraries, including lunch
stops, and be willing to make certain that the wineries that you
will visit are open and receiving visitors at the time you plan to
be there. Here are our recommendations:
