“In 2024, Chianti is presented again to the public after a difficult year in terms of quantity – due to various events – but offering a very high quality – said Giovanni BusiPresident of Consorzio Vino Chianti. Chianti continues to improve in the glass and this the most important detail after years of sacrifices on the part of companies to restructure their vineyards. We come here to offer high-level products and that gives us the opportunity to tackle the world markets with great serenity. History and quality are our trademarks”.
