Activity itinerary

Experience a tour dedicated to the historic grape varieties of Chianti Classico at Castello della Paneretta, a estate that safeguards a winemaking tradition documented since 1596. The activity begins with a private guided tour of the castle and the historic cellar. Discover the link between the property, its vineyards, and the two signature varieties of local production: Sangiovese and Canaiolo. Then move on to a guided sensory laboratory: with a estate expert compare 3 selected wines and learn to observe the colour, recognise the aromas, and evaluate structure and tannins. No prior knowledge is required. Pair the wines with Tuscan cured meats, pecorino, and bruschetta with extra virgin olive oil, or choose the light lunch option.
