Gelateria di Castellina
Gelateria di Castellina

The ice cream (gelato) made and sold at the geletaria L’ Antica Delizia in Castellina in Chianti, now renamed Gelateria di Castellina, is commonly said to be the best you can get in Chianti, better even than any in Florence. We have to agree with that assessment. Not only is each flavour sublime but the range of flavours is large, constantly changing and highly original.

L’ Antica Delizia is located on the corner of the main road coming from Florence (Via Chiantigiana), more or less just past the last houses of Castellina in the direction of Sienna, where SP51 branches off SR222. There’s plenty of parking so if you’re anywhere near Castellina or travelling along the Chiantigiana, take a few minutes break to choose and enjoy a fabulous gelato!

L’ Antica Delizia, Via IV Novembre 47, Castellina in Chianti (SI), Italy

Tel: +39 0577 741337.
