The 2023 vintage began with a warm winter with little rain. May and June were cold with heavy rains that caused several problems with downy mildew throughout Italy. In July temperatures rose a lot and the summer was hot and dry with some rains in late August that allowed the grapes to complete ripening.

The first official document citing the Chianti wine is dated 1398.
