Chianti Classico Expo: Trip Planning Guide
Greve in Chianti, Italy
Going to Chianti Classico Expo?
Held in the central piazza of Greve in Chianti each September, this festival brings together Chianti Classico producers for an annual tasting showcase. Visitors taste wines from across the DOCG while enjoying the Tuscan hill-town atmosphere, local food, and live music. One of the most accessible ways to explore Chianti Classico.
Your trip blueprint
Purchase a tasting glass early and beeline for small producers like Volpaia or Vertine who pour limited-production single-vineyard bottlings unavailable in most markets; the mega-names' tables will be three-deep all day. Schedule a lunch reservation at a wine bar on Greve's main piazza where local sommeliers steer you toward underrated younger producers making exciting modern expressions of Classico.
About Tuscany
