Marco Pallanti was a key figure for Chianti Classico during his presidency of the Consorzio Vino Chianti Classico from 2006 to 2012. His modern and ambitious vision contributed to enhancing the Denomination, emphasizing the deep connection between the region’s native grape varieties and the passionate producers who bring its identity to life. Under his leadership, Chianti Classico successfully combined innovation with respect for tradition, solidifying its position as a leading force in the global wine industry.
In February 2012, Marco Pallanti opened a new edition of the Chianti Classico Collection, the event showcasing the new vintages of Gallo Nero. On this occasion, he delivered a passionate and engaging reflection on the Denomination, highlighting the unique bond between the territory and its producers—an inseparable connection that serves as an extraordinary tool for storytelling and cultural expression.
His words perfectly capture the essence of this remarkable heritage:
“Taste the wines, talk to the producers, visit the beautiful vineyards, and you will see that there is something fresh and daring, something truly great, waiting for you. Once again, Chianti Classico will offer you a new starting point beyond the usual assumptions, in full respect of tradition.”
