WINE DESCRIPTION
Cecchi Chianti Classico Riserva di Famiglia is a premium red wine produced by the renowned Cecchi family in the Chianti Classico appellation of Tuscany, Italy. The wine is primarily made from Sangiovese grapes grown in the family's vineyards, which are characterized by their high altitude and rocky soil. The winemaking process involves careful selection of the best grapes, followed by fermentation and aging in oak barrels for a minimum of 24 months. The resulting wine is a complex and elegant expression of the Sangiovese grape, with notes of red fruit, spice, and a hint of vanilla from the oak aging. This wine is a perfect example of the traditional Chianti Classico style, and a must-try for any wine enthusiast.
