My friend and I stayed at Castello in Chianti in November of last year. Wow..It is one of the most beautiful castles and landscapes I've ever set eyes on, the vineyards are right outside your back door with rolling hills and the wines they make at the castle are exquisite. Anthony Freveletti was our guide and he took care of us in every possible way... explaining the history of the region, the history of their wine and how it's made, and took us through an amazing tour of the castle and where the wine is actually produced. My friend and I have no knowledge about wine, and after leaving there have learned so much about wine making and the different varieties of grapes and soils. Anthony also explained the history of the castle and took us through the events that happened there during the Renaissance. I cannot recommend him more and if you are planning on taking a trip to Tuscany, Castello di Meleto is a must see...and ask for Anthony!!. One of the most amazing experiences I've ever had in my life ...in this gorgeous region in Tuscany and some of the best Chianti Classico you will ever have in your lifetime!!
