Chianti Classico Expo 2013

43rd Edition of Chianti Classico Expo

The 43rd Expo is the ideal opportunity to learn about Chianti Classico wine in its territory of production: Chianti. These days Greve in Chianti offers its visitors a program that is even more full of artistic and cultural events, of events related to the rural world, of close encounters with the winemakers, their vineyards and wineries.
From the 70s further, this event has changed name and setting - firstly "Mostra Mercato", then "Rassegna" and then "Expo" - but it remains without any doubt the most important event to learn about the world of Chianti wine.

WELCOME TO GRAVE IN CHIANTI!
The Mayor Alberto Bencistà
