A Tasting Spectacle: Journeying Through Time Since 1716
Food and wine journalist Leonardo Romanelli leads a tasting journey interwoven with stories of the last 300 years—starting from 1716, the birth year of Chianti Classico. The narrative features texts by great writers performed by actor Dimitri Frosali, alongside live musical arias spanning from the 18th century to the present day. An emotional storytelling experience paired with Chianti Classico wine and olive oil.
