What grows here

Barberino Tavarnelle

19 protected denominations overlap in this municipality.

Barberino Tavarnelle, a scattered municipality of historic hamlets south of Florence, draws its agricultural strength from its fragmented, high-altitude terrain. These rocky Florentine hillsides yield Chianti Classico DOCG, a prestigious wine confined to a strict zone of just 7 municipalities. The same unique terroir produces Chianti Classico DOP olive oil. Within this territory, 33 verified producers cultivate these regulated specialties, utilizing the specific soil drainage and sunny exposures of the local ridges. To experience this firsthand, 18 of these estates regularly open their cellars to international visitors.
