Pranzo esclusivo, Tour cantina, vini Bio nel Chianti Classico

Thank you Joe and Henry for the terrific evening enjoying a selection of Chapel Down wines at Bar 85. Joe, the owner and Master Mixicologist of Bar and Henry the representative of Chapel Down Winery in Tenterden, gave a superb illustration of the range and quality of English wine produced in Kent by Chapel Down winery. Henry demonstrated us how to taste wine in order to throughly enjoy and better understand how the wines offered were grown, harvested and cellared to deliver optimum results. We were all impressed by his knowledge and delivery, he guided through the wine-making process and blew away a few misconceptions along the route. Joe, who organised the event also provided an excellent selection of snacks to complement the wines. I really enjoyed the evening and left with a new appreciation of the quality and range of the wines available at Bar 85.

This was such a nice and delicious experience! The tour was short and sweet and the food was so good! We were stuffed and very happy! We loved knowing more about the Chianti wines at Panzanello.

What a fabulous way to spend the afternoon. A short and beautiful drive from Panzano. I knew the minute I arrived at Panzanello that it was going to be an amazing day. My tour guide, Taziana, greeted me as soon as I drove up. She walked me through every part of the winery, introducing me to the wine maker and later to the owner. We walked through the kitchen where a large family was taking a cooking class together (that looked REALLY fun!) Lunch was on the back veranda with an incredible view of olive trees and rolling hills. The four-course meal was delicious, and the tiramisu (which LOOKED simple) is the best I've ever had. I did not intend to join the wine club; however, the wines are phenomenal and the entire experience was one of the highlights of my trip. I'm in, and I can't wait to go back next spring! Book the adventure...you will have a peaceful and fulfilling experience!

Thanks to the visit to this winery this sad rainy day was unforgettable. The staff and owner are highly trained and you can tell they love what they do. The wines we tasted were excellent and the cuisine was exquisite.

This was supposed to be just a rest stop, a place to recharge on our 2 week multi-city family trip. Turned out to be our best experience in Italy. Andrea and his family treated our family like his family, giving us his Land Rover to use to go into town, giving each of our kids wines vintaged on their birth year, touring their private cellars, sharing their family’s table while we made dinner together. He and Ioletta quickly become our friends. Panzanello wines have two unique characteristics - delicious and no hangover because Andrea uses very low sulfates. We have toured the world, same as you, this is an authentic place.

We toured Panzanello Winery as part of a tour group. The owners were very welcoming and explained the wine process in great detail. It is a beautiful property and the wine was amazing. We also had an antipasto as part of our wine tasting of 4 different wines. Definitely worth the trip. Will return when I am in Italy again!

We were treated with a private tour and the owner gave us a very detailed explanation of the Chianti region vino produce. Afterwards we have the lunch and each course was accompanied with different wine to match. The food, the vinegar and the wine were from his house or from local produce, small farms. Just fresh and fabulous!
