Overview
In 1716, Tuscany's penultimate Medici ruler, Cosimo III, anointed the region of Chianti, along with three smaller areas in the Florentine State, as the world's first legal appellations of origin for wine. This book tells the story of the ancient land named Chianti and the modern wine appellation known as Chianti Classico.
