My name is Nina, and I know Chianti Classico like the back of my hand
I’ve been spending time in Chianti Classico regularly for over 25 years—now almost half the year. I know not only the places but also the people behind them. I’ve been visiting some of the wineries and restaurants for years. I know which table is the nicest, which dish you should try, and when the light is most magical at my favorite vantage points.
My recommendations aren't based on a quick search—but on real-life experience, many visits, and a deep love for this region.
