Introducing Val delle Rose Estate:

Winery: Val delle Rose Vineyards
Purchased in: 1996
Region: Maremma - south west Tuscany - Italy
Owners: Andrea & Cesare Cecchi
In 1996 the Cecchi family bought the 25 hectare Val delle Rose Estate in Poggio la Mozza in the productive heart of Morellino di Scansano. The foresight and philosophy of Andrea & Cesare Cecchi has been like an agricultural revolution. As the agronomic techniques previously practiced did not guarantee quality or the constancy necessary for the survival of a modern winery.
I first visited the estate back in 2006 and now there are over 100 planted hectares. The location is the stuff of wine lovers’ dreams, an authentic taste of rustic Maremma with an elegant contemporary Tuscan character running throughout. Local grapes flourish alongside international varieties: Sangiovese, Merlot, Petit Verdot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Colorino and Vermentino. The underground winery is a winemaker's dream, with the latest technology and stunning barrel-hall cellars: - Please enjoy this short video showcasing their summertime wines which were enjoyed in 4 iconic cities across Italy in 2019… - *(published Sept. 2019)
