Balloon trip over the Chianti hills

(Corzano e Paterno)
Genre: culture   wine and food   fun   useful information   

An experience that compares the skill, the ingenuity of the man who works together with the wind, is a balloon flight. Between Tavarnelle Val di Pesa and San Pancrazio, the Corzano and Paterno farm has set up a flight platform. The flying area concerns the Chianti Classico and the Florentine Hills. The panorama, which can be admired, strictly affects the wine-growing vocation of the territory. The first rays of the sun rise from the hill of San Pancrazio and, flying over the medieval village of Pergolato, you follow the course of the Terzona stream. Farmhouses with dovecotes and stately castles dominate the vineyards and olive groves, the breath of the wind breathes with the expansion of the balloon and you climb up to the Collina, a famous parish church that houses the famous tomb of the archer of the time Etruscan. We return to the base, the landing is abrupt and everyone collaborates for the successful outcome. Happiness is filled with a small refreshment in the vineyards with prosecco and fresh or aged cheeses from the farm.
