Chianti Classico Region
Chianti Classico seal, recently changed in 2013, is a black rooster (Gallo Nero in Italian) on a white background with a bordeaux colored frame.

About us
The tiny village (borgo) of Stomennano was built on ancient ruins that are visible to this day, and it is indeed as a Roman outpost that it first appears in written records dating back to 1059.
