Condé Nast Traveler – Close your eyes and picture Tuscany, and chances are hazy romantic landscapes, cloud-grazing cypress trees and billowing hills laced with endless grapevines will spring to mind. A haven for oenophiles, the region is renowned for its prestigious wines, from Chianti and Bolgheri to Brunello di Montalcino—travelers headed to the Tuscan territories are, more often than not, ready and willing to spend their holiday taste-testing their way through bottles (crates?) of the region’s finest.
