L’Accademia del Buon Gusto in Panzano for Chianti fun

In the Chianti, the people often make the difference, especially as regards wine-tastings. A perfunctory tour of a great estate is still a perfunctory tour. In neighbouring Panzano in Chianti, they do wine in style and make it memorable. L’Accademia del Buon Gusto is a wine shop with a difference thanks to its entertaining and effervescent owner. The lasting feeling is one of meeting a friend who cares passionately about both wine and Tuscany and wishes to share his knowledge.

Multilingual Stefano Salvadori is an engaging personality, a gracious, old-school host who entertains and informs about the wine wonderland that is Chianti. Stefano offers free tastings of Tuscan wines, olive oils and vinegars, all the while waxing lyrical about Chianti wines, Slow Food, Tuscan life, traditions, art, politics, the universe and everything. The wine shop is not called `The Academy of Good Taste’ by chance. Visitors leave uplifted and usually laden down with both wine and new knowledge.
