| Description |
Chianti Classico is the Tuscan wine with the oldest regulations. An edict was issued in 1716 by the Grand Duke of Tuscany Cosimo III that delimited its production territory. Today many things have changed, but the character of great class and austerity of this wine has remained and can even be said to have increased.
