Florence – Chianti Lovers & Rosso Morellino

Coming soon is the Preview 2025 Chianti Lovers & Rosso Morellino, exclusively dedicated to the Press, with the presentation of the new production vintages of Chianti Docg and Morellino di Scansano Doc

The 2025 edition of Chianti Lovers & Rosso Morellino will not have the usual format (producers, journalists and the public) but will consist of a day dedicated exclusively to the Italian and foreign press with the setting up of the tasting room only, without the usual participation of the public and trade professionals. Therefore, the usual exhibition hall dedicated to the producers’ desks will not be set up and the physical presence of the companies is not expected, but only the tasting press room will be provided. The day is scheduled for Wednesday, Feb. 19, 2025, at the Fortezza Da Basso in Florence Chianti lovers & Rosso Morellino–born from the collaboration between Consorzio Vino Chianti and Consorzio di Tutela del Morellino di Scansano–is the reference association and official organizer of the event, which is then carried out operationally by the two consortia. Two denominations that are different in size, territory and ampelographic base, but that more than others have chosen a common path, both in promotion and daily work, both increasingly linked to direct contact with consumers, including through wine tourism. The Chianti Wine Consortium (established in 1927) now includes 3,500 wineries working 15,000 hectares of vineyards. For the historic Maremma appellation, the Consorzio Tutela Morellino di Scansano was established in 1992 and became DOCG in 2007. Today it has 220 members and 1,500 hectares of vineyards registered for the appellation (of which 15 percent are registered as organic)
