MAY IS FOR WINE LOVERS!!!

During May in Tuscany you can enjoy at two most delightful events: Alla Corte del Vino and Cantine Aperte.
In the Chianti hills, exactly in the garden of Villa Corsini, a lot of wineries show their best at "Alla Corte del Vino". This event offers a possibility to know anew labels of the best wineries of Tuscany. Besides, you can buy the wine you’ve just tasted: on entrance the visitors can indicate what and how much they would like to buy.

The other event is "Cantine Aperte": last year over four millions people visited the country’s wineries; they throw open their doors and showed facilities of production. For a great "Cantine Aperte" day in Tuscany organize a group of friends, download a list of open cellars and plane your trip. But for a safe trip back you must choose a driver who prefers viewing Tuscany more than drinking wine.
During Cantine Aperte if you need any help or if you find something worth, you can contact the journalist Marco Badiani at his email: m.badiani@theflorentine.net.
