Private Grape stomping at Chianti Farmhouse

Overview

Harvest has always been seen as a time of celebration in the countryside: after months of hard work and sacrifices, all those efforts are finally rewarded with the ripening of the grapes and the exciting moment of winemaking. Before mechanization, harvests were carried out by entire families, who would press the grapes with their bare feet inside large wooden vats. This gentle, traditional method was highly valued, as foot-pressing does not stress the grapes. This tour is highly recommended for those who want to enjoy a unique experience while discovering the true essence of life in the Tuscan countryside. A visit to a winery with wine tasting is included; depending on the season, guests can pick grapes or press grapes provided by us. Discover these amazing ancient traditions and create a genuine, high-quality product. The meeting point is at our office in Castellina in Chianti.
