Default Chianti Classico, whom to visit?

Great to see you here again!

It used to be true that 100% Sangiovese was not admitted, but that changed more than a decade ago. My favorite Tuscan wine Le Pergole Torte (from Montevertine whom Mark mentions) could now be legally Chianti Classico, but stuck with status quo.

I also haven't visited Tuscany, but if I did my list would echo Mark's (and maybe add Fontodi and Castello di Ama).
