The Chianti hills between Florence and Siena are a crystallisation of all the delights of rural Tuscany. Winding roads climb up hill and down dale, through woods and fields of golden sunflowers, offering wonderful open vistas across a scene made up of endless vine-covered valleys and crests often topped with medieval castles. Dotted across this verdant landscape are majestic stone farmhouses and picturesque old villages where markets are held and local wine bought and sold.
