Check out the Chianti region on a Tuscany villa holiday
A range of tours can be found that allow holiday makers to discover the art of winemaking and learn about its history and vital part in Italy's culture, with some wine-tasting thrown in of course.
On such tours, travellers can combine wine-tasting with a country drive through the endearing rural landscape filled with vineyards, olive groves, medieval farmhouses and castles.
Many tours involve accompanying meals and delicacies, with the local grower more than willing to regale you with tales of his passion and love for the humble grape.
Those who elect to stay in a villa in the lofty city of Volterra will find that the vineyards of the Chianti region are not far away and the surrounding area is perfect to spend a day simply motoring around and musing about the sights and sounds of the region.
