WINE DESCRIPTION
Cecchi Chianti is a classic Italian wine produced by the Cecchi family, who have been making wine for over a century. The wine is made in the Chianti appellation, which is known for its rolling hills and picturesque vineyards. The grapes used to make Cecchi Chianti are grown in vineyards that benefit from the region's warm climate and well-draining soils. The winemaking process involves traditional techniques, including fermentation in stainless steel tanks and aging in oak barrels. The resulting wine is a medium-bodied red with a bright ruby color and aromas of red fruit and spice. On the palate, it is dry and well-balanced with a refreshing acidity and a long finish. Cecchi Chianti is a versatile wine that pairs well with a variety of foods, making it a popular choice for any occasion.
NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
This Cecchi Chianti Classico offers a ripe, intense nose of wild berry and earthy spice.On the palate, it is smooth and supple, with ripe cherry and ripe raspberry flavors backed by subtle notes of dried herbs and earth. The tannins are soft, and the finish is long and lingering. A great Chianti for the price, it pairs well with grilled meats and rustic pasta dishes.
