Rufina & Pomino Chianti Wine Route
Rufina and Pomino Chianti Wine Route: Art, nature, wine and excellent cuisine form the milestones along this prestigious wine route.
Rufina and Pomino are not only the land of some Italy's best dry red wines, but also home to Giotto, the world famous Italian painter.
This is also favorite area where Florentine families built their luxurious country estates and castles.
What makes this route particularly charming are the various farms and Renaissance country villas built on the foundations of ancient forts in picturesque countryside.
Also charming are the winemakers and farmers themselves, many of whose families have lived here for centuries in order to continue the eno-gastronomic traditions of their Tuscan ancestors found in wine, cheese, cured meats, soups and hearty beefsteaks -all of which has marked this part of Italy permanently on the map.
