Highlights

A true vertical tasting. Five historic vintages, side by side, reveal how a single wine evolves across decades, not just across styles.

Guided by a real expert. An expert winemaker or sommelier shares firsthand knowledge of harvest conditions, aging and the estate’s approach to cellar management.

Two paths through history. Choosing between a Chianti Classico Riserva vertical or a Supertuscan vertical lets guests pick the style that interests them most.

For serious wine lovers. This is a deeper, more exclusive experience than a standard tasting, ideal for those who want to understand longevity and terroir, not just taste wine.
