After free time to make purchases (optional; own expense), board the bus for the short drive to the second Chianti Classico winery to visit the estate and compare production methods. Cap off your tour with a wine tasting of three different labels paired with Tuscan olive oil, cheese, cold cuts, and other local specialties.
