With a proclamation dated 18 July 1716, the Grand Duke of Tuscany Cosimo III set up a trade congregation to supervise the quality of exported wines. It was established that every year the producers of the areas of Chianti, Pomino, Carmignano and the "Vald'Arno di sopra" had to notify the quantities of wine produced and the type of hill or plain, pure or governed. In practice, the first DOC for quality wines was born. And on those hills today this wine is born which, aged for two years and after a passage in wood, resumes its ancient name.
