Sip & Savor: Wine and Cheese of Toscana

Rolling green hills, cypress-lined dirt roads, and endless rows of vineyards is every travelers’ vision of Toscana. The central region is a favorite travel destination for many reasons, including its dynamic wine production and rich food culture. Famous around the world for its red wines made from the Sangiovese grape (Chianti, Brunello di Montalcino, and Vino Nobile di Montepulciano), newer-aged wines that use “international” grapes, in addition to lesser-known white varietals are also making their mark in this celebrated region.
