Chianti Wine Tasting near Florence BELLAVISTA EXPERIENCE
If you would like to discover our winery through all its flavors and nuances, our Chianti wine tasting near Florence is the perfect experience for you and it is the most loved by our visitors.
Vineyard Tour
If weather conditions allow, we will begin with a short walk to reach our best Sangiovese vineyard. Here we will explore the principles of viticulture, the Chianti production regulations, the distinctive characteristics of our territory, and the cultivation methods we follow according to the principles of organic farming.
We will then walk through an olive grove, where we will briefly share the history of olive growing and explain the methods used to produce our extra virgin olive oil.
Winery Visit
Inside our winery you will discover the techniques of winemaking and aging. We will share our production philosophy and our commitment to social responsibility, which includes a collaboration with a local social cooperative that supports disadvantaged people.
During the visit you will also have the opportunity to taste wine directly from the barrique while it is aging.
You will also visit our Orciaia, a special room that preserves authentic ancient terracotta jars from Impruneta, traditionally used in Tuscany.
Visit to the Vinsantaia
Finally, we will visit our historic and exclusive vinsantaia, where our Vin Santo del Chianti is produced. This space is dedicated to the drying of the grapes, their vinification, and the aging process in our precious caratelli barrels, some of which date back to the 1960s.

A beautiful place, a must-see if you're passing through Florence. The winemaker's experience and passion will make for a unique and rustic tasting experience, different from the usual.
A very intimate and family-friendly experience. We really enjoyed our stay in a corner of Tuscany just outside Florence, which seemed much quieter given the distance. The guide was extremely knowledgeable and the hostess was incredibly welcoming. An experience worth repeating!
I went for a tasting on December 6th. It was very interesting to discover the entire production process and to taste the finished product accompanied by local products. Kudos to Tiberio, the winemaker and agronomist, who gave me the opportunity to discover all this! Highly recommended.
The road to the winery is quite narrow and long, and one has a lot of time to consider the logistics of navigating incoming cars. Let me assure you, the drive is worth it. The views are spectacular as the name assures, the olive oil exceptional, and the wine absolutely delightful. Best, most balanced orange wine I've found. You will leave enjoying the view on the way down, and probably with a good amount of wine.
A pochi minuti dal centro di Scandicci ti ritrovi in questo posto incantevole e rilassante. Abbiamo fatto l'esperienza degustazione prima visitando le vigne, le cantine, la vinsantaia fino alla degustazione dei vini con prodotti locali. A rendere tutto meraviglioso è stato il sommelier Filippo che è stato bravissimo ad accompagnarci in questa esperienza.
Had the most amazing time doing a tasting, a true highlight of our time in Italy from Australia. Lisa did a fantastic job of showing us the vineyards and explaining the wine making process. The wine and pairings were fantastic. Highly recommend over larger wineries. Hope to visit again!
Ci siamo trovati abbastanza bene, interessante la visita tra i vigneti e la cantina. Tuttavia avremmo però desiderato una più accurata descrizione degli abbinamenti dei vini con il cibo e come assaporare al meglio i vini. Abbiamo purtroppo trovato la ragazza che ci ha accompagnato nel tour non molto preparata nell’esposizione. Posto magnifico immerso nel verde.
Il luogo, i prodotti e Marianna sono state scoperte piacevoli! Consiglio vivamente la Bellavista Experience, un percorso che ci ha trasmesso tutto l'amore, la professionalità e l'impegno dell'azienda. I vini, biologici, da provare assolutamente!
In tre mesi ho fatto due visite guidate alla Fattoria Bellavista e la seconda è stata la conferma della prima.. entrambe bellissime! Mi sono innamorata di questo luogo alla mia prima visita a marzo, con l'ambiente genuino, puro e i prodotti di qualità altissima, sia vini che olio. Consiglio caldamente a chi ama le cose di un tempo, le tradizioni e le persone che mettono il cuore in ciò che fanno. Grazie a Marianna, Tiberio e Lisa. E' sicuramente un arrivederci
Beautiful and very accommodating! Made a very last minute reservation(in English), and got a private tour of the vineyard, olive grove, and even got to pull my own wine out of a barrel! Excellent Chianti and a beautiful and easy trip from Florence.
Fattoria Bella Vista di Casignano is a true gem of Tuscany, so undoubtedly one of the most beautiful and special places on earth. The scenery here is sure to awaken the artist in you, and the wonderful wine from Fattoria Bella Vista di Casignano will only enhance that inspiration 🙂 The staff is always happy to help you make the best choice based on your preferences! Since I prefer white wines, I chose Sanzanobi, an orange wine with charisma - truly an exclusive among exclusives! Of course, I could not be indifferent to the amazing strong-sweet Vin Santo del Chianti and the light, poetic Rosé Villa Di Sotto.
1000/10. Wow! Such an incredible experience! My boyfriend and I were traveling from Florence to Siena and stopped in at this vineyard and had an amazing tasting experience. The staff was knowledgeable and friendly. The wine was some of the best we tried in Tuscany and they’re making it all the right way. They even let us do some barrel tasting and laid out all kinds of snacks to try alongside the wine. Don’t skip the olive oil!
For English speakers: The owner speaks primarily Italian, I would recommend emailing ahead if you plan to visit as we had some hiccups trying to call for a reservation. It is well worth it though!!!
