The book tells the fascinating story of the ancient land called Chianti and the modern wine region known as Chianti Classico. In 1716, the penultimate Medici ruler of Tuscany, Cosimo III, declared Chianti, along with three other regions of the Florentine Republic, to be the world's first official appellations. In the following centuries this important historical event was almost forgotten. By the end of the XIX century the word "Chianti" symbolized not this historical region and its famous wines, but an ordinary Italian red table wine in an empty bottle with a straw braid. In the twenty-first century, Chianti Classico is gradually becoming one of Italy's most dynamic and fashionable wine areas. The book traces the evolution of Chianti with its complex and intricate geography and culture. Alongside the myths and mysteries of this legendary wine region, the secrets of sangiovese, Chianti's most important grape variety, are revealed.
