The Black Rooster — Gallo Nero — is the symbol of the Chianti Classico production zone, with origins dating back to the 14th century. If there is no Black Rooster on the bottle, it's not a Chianti Classico. Col di Vento is produced from vineyards in the hilly landscape of the Chianti Classico zone, where clay soils and altitude create ideal conditions for Sangiovese and its traditional blending partners.About This WineA classic Chianti Classico blending Sangiovese with Merlot, Malvasia Nera, and Canaiolo — the traditional varieties of the zone.
