Using Sangiovese as the main grape varietal in Chianti Classico, Baron Bettino Ricasoli started a revolution by ignoring the traditional red and white grapes permitted by the rigid Italian viniculture regulations. This has won many international awards and achievements with top quality Chianti Classico wines and Super Tuscans.
