“One of the highest in altitude in the entire Chianti region, the Volpaia vineyard is recognized for the elegance of the wines produced there, always marked by a thirst-quenching and balanced acidity.” - Veronique Rivest
The first official document citing the Chianti wine is dated 1398. But it’s only in 1716 that the Granduke of Florence Cosimo III de’ Medici officialy sets the boundaries of the Chianti region where Chianti Classico wine is now produced (but not Chianti wine). Since 2007 Chianti Classico is made with up to 100% of Sangiovese and no more than 20% of other authorized red berry varieties of which none should exceed 15% alone.
