About this experience
Chianti Rufina, the smallest and highest-elevation sub-region in Chianti, is celebrated for its high-altitude vineyards that add unique tannic structure to its wines. Located northeast of Florence on the slopes of the Tuscan-Romagnolo Apennines, Chianti Rufina is a historic wine-producing area renowned as one of the most prestigious in Tuscany. The legacy of winemaking here dates back to the early fifteenth century, when the Medici family recognized the area’s potential for exceptional wines. In 1716, Cosimo III de' Medici officially included Chianti Rufina in the Bando dei Vini, the world’s first law regulating wine production. Explore this small but mighty wine region, revered since Etruscan times, and gain in-depth insights into the history and heritage of Chianti Rufina's esteemed wines. Gain in-depth knowledge about a well-reputed and historical wine area, which can be shortly regarded as small but mighty. Wine has been produced in the Chianti Rufina region since Etruscan times.

Situated atop Montefiesole at 450 meters above sea level, this boutique winery offers a glimpse into the heart of Chianti Rufina’s countryside. Established in the 1700s by the Peruzzi family, the estate later passed to the Lottero family from Genoa. The family undertook extensive restoration, replanting vineyards and olive groves and refurbishing the villas. Today, it remains a quintessential Tuscan family-run business, harmonizing all practices with nature. As the first winery in Chianti Rufina to adopt organic production, they produce wine, olive oil, wheat, fruits, and vegetables, combining traditional craftsmanship with modern biodynamic techniques. A centuries-old cedar of Lebanon, symbolizing strength and longevity, stands proudly on the estate, along with a restored 19th-century windmill, adding to the winery's historic charm. You will enjoy lunch and a wine tasting on the terrace of the farm’s restaurant, overlooking the breathtaking Tuscan landscape.

Rufina
Since 1992, the Lippi and Santoni families have dedicated themselves to the production of wine and oil, in full respect of nature and territory. Always organic, both the wines and the oil have been certified since 1999. They are between 300 and 500 meters, where the climatic characteristics of Chianti Rufina area are extreme. Here artisan wines are born followed by the vineyard to the cellar by the bottle. Important archaeological finds testify to the cultivation of vines on this soil already at the time of the Etruscans. This winery is always full of surprises. The craftsmanship follows the nature and inclinations of the highest Chianti Rufina. Walking always with the tradition of Sangiovese, in time it has been enriched by lucky encounters between the earth and a selection of classical vine varieties. Without forgetting the olive groves that grow side by side with the vineyards.

Unforgettable experience
Back in March 23 we had the pleasure of attending a private Chianti Tour with Angel. The experience was magical and unforgettable, in large part due to our unbelievably open, talkative and pleasant tour guide. I would urge anybody to book through Europea, especially the Chianti tour, and if Angelo is available, I would definitely recommend him. What’s better than loads of different Tuscan wines, delicious food, scenic and historical landscapes and an amazing guide to teach you the beauty of Tuscany!

Why this scores 53
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Exclusive Chianti Rufina Half Day Tour with Lunch from Florence: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Florence.
How much does Exclusive Chianti Rufina Half Day Tour with Lunch from Florence cost?
+
Prices start at $379 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Florence usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Exclusive Chianti Rufina Half Day Tour with Lunch from Florence take?
+
Plan for about 7 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Florence is not rushed.
Is Exclusive Chianti Rufina Half Day Tour with Lunch from Florence worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 53 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 2 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Florence, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Exclusive Chianti Rufina Half Day Tour with Lunch from Florence?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Exclusive Chianti Rufina Half Day Tour with Lunch from Florence suitable for kids and families?
+
The operator sets a minimum age of 10. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 7-hour running time when deciding.
How far in advance should I book Exclusive Chianti Rufina Half Day Tour with Lunch from Florence?
+
Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Florence can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Florence and add a light layer if any part of the 7-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Exclusive Chianti Rufina Half Day Tour with Lunch from Florence start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Florence within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Florence?
+
On Outty we rank every Florence experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include The Best tour in Florence: Renaissance & Medici Tales - guided by a STORYTELLER, Florence Pizza or Pasta Class & Gelato Making at a Tuscan Farm, Small group Tuscan Wineries, Olive Oil & Gourmet Lunch or Dinner. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Florence?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Florence?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
