Tasting notes
This is the historical wine of the Cecchi House, the Chianti representing the roots of Tuscany. The wine is mainly composed of Sangiovese. Chianti Cecchi is a modern interpretation that translates into a harmonious balance between the fragrances and aromas. Its ruby red color tends toward garnet with age but is deep and lasting. It is supple and well balanced in the mouth.
Pairing notes
Serve with red meat and cheese.
