Chianti & Chianti Classico Masterclass 2022

Content from UpNext.com.au. Please don't scrape website.

Tuscany is known for its outstanding quality wines around the world.

This region hosts so many tourists every year and has become famous for their succulent 'Bistecca Alla Fiorentina' and, of course, Chianti wine!

For many years, the image of Chianti has been in the classic Fiaschetto (the typical bottle with a round bottom, partially covered with a close-fitting straw basket). But today Chianti has a different story to tell - a story that starts with noble families and blends of white and red grape varieties and the magnificent result of new winemaking techniques.

Learn about vintages, producers, styles, subzones and blends. If you are a fan of Sangiovese grapes, this masterclass will cover all you always wanted to know about Chianti! Plus, our intimate setup allows for Q&A and networking.

Discovering Chianti and Chianti Classico is like travelling through the magic hills of this territory with so many beautiful stories. No passport needed!

Who is coming?

From Sangiovese fans to wine collectors and hospitality professionals who want to increase their knowledge about this dynamic, food-friendly and popular Italian wine.
