Visiting wineries in Panzano without car

[jlasalle1]

Is there a taxi in Panzano? WE are taking the bus from Florence to Panzano and want to visit some of the wineries in Panzano. Are there any wineries within walking distance?

There is one taxi service in the area, but it doesn't work like a taxi stand, you need to call them and book ahead of time.
I would suggest getting in touch, asking for price estimates and, if you want to go ahead, booking a date and time so that you know you will have the transport. Don't wait until the last minute. They are called Chianti Taxi - http://www.chiantitaxi.com/

The alternative and one you should consider, is rather than take a bus from Florence to Panzano and then arrange a taxi, is to get a tour directly from Florence. You can either for go a private tour (such as this one) or join a small or larger tour group (shared costs) that will take you directly from Florence into Chianti to several wine estates for wine tastings.
