Autostradan tar oss rakt söderut i riktning mot den lilla byn Greve in Chianti inom hjärtat från Toscana. Här i mitten av Italien, har man odlat samt producerat alkoholhaltig sedan medeltiden. När oss svänger från, endast en par kilometer från byn Greve, samt åker upp för den lilla vägen mot gården Terreno slås man från direkt historiens vingslag. Stenhusen, popplarna samt cypresserna känns uråldriga.
Snart öppnas vegetationen samt vinrankor jämte olivlundar omsluter ett vackert ljusgult stenhus med enstaka magisk trädgård som doftar av lavendel, rosmarin samt lagerblad. Solen sätter sig precis inom väster samt ger ett inramning mot det varma välkomnandet från Sofia, den yngsta dottern av fyra döttrar Ruhne.

A Brief History Of The Chianti Area
The first recorded use of the term &#;Clanti&#; (origin of the modern-day Italian word &#;Chianti&#;), attributed to the powerful &#;Clante&#; family, was in the 11th century, and the name was eventually used to describe the area that includes Florence, Arezzo, Siena, and Pisa.
In the 15th century, the Sangiovese grape variety was first used by local winemakers to make a local red wine that gained popularity with each passing generation.
In , Cosimo III de Medici, the grand duke of Tuscany, published the first book dedicated to winemaking.
In this book, he declared that the Chianti region was the only area suitable for making the early Chianti type of wine. Cosimo was hundreds of years ahead of his time by creating a designated area for wine in Italy &#; like the modern-day DOCG.
Whether you prefer Vin Santo, Chianti Classico Gran Selezione made from % Sangiovese grapes, this very special wine region has something for everyone.
If you don’t like Chianti Classico wines or want to try something different, most wineries in the area also produce amazing reds, whites, roses, and grappa!
