Chiarli Vecchia Modena won the first international recognition by a Lambrusco wine at the World Expo in Paris in 1900. Reintroduced in 2002 at a brand-new Cleto Chiarli winery, the wine is made through a single fermentation under pressure, rather than the normal two-fermentation process of almost all other sparkling wines.

  • San-Gimignano-2.Pdf
    1 SAN GIMIGNANO San Gimignano is a small medieval town in the Province of Siena, in Tuscany. It rises on top of a hill (344 metres tall) dominating the Elsa Valley and it is a famous tourist town, whose unique collection of towers and winding lanes makes it a charming destination for tourists. Its historic centre is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The town is also known for its white wine called Vernaccia di San Gimignano. 2 FOCUS ON HISTORY San Gimignano was founded by the Etruscans in the 3rd century. In the 10th century it adopted the name of the Bishop of Modena, Saint Geminianus, who had defended it from the Huns, led by Attila. In the Middle Ages the town increased in wealth due to its position on a trade and pilgrimage route, the famous Via Francigena, which was the most important route connecting Italy to the rest of Europe. In the 13th century it became a very important producer of saffron, which was exported not only to Genoa, Pisa and Lucca, but also to France and the Low Countries. Between the 11th and the 13th centuries 72 towers were built, rising above the town’s rooftops to witness San Gimignano’s prosperity. Nowadays there are only fourteen towers in San Gimignano. 3 Our walking tour begins at the Town Walls. We can pass through San Giovanni's Gate and walk along Via San Giovanni, a street flanked by old palaces, going up to the centre of the town. From here it is easy to reach Piazza Della Cisterna.
