From generation to generation, Cecchi Family has accompanied the historical journey of Italian wine, which, in less than a century, has gone from being a farmer’s food to a leading national brand, known and appreciated around the world.
The story of Cecchi Family is a simple one. In 1893, Luigi Cecchi, thanks to his wine-tasting talents, laid the foundations for the dynasty that is still known and appreciated today for the production of its high-quality wines. Luigi’s reputation is renown internationally, so much so that already during the ‘30s the family name began its unrelenting growth. In the ‘70s, the family moved to the municipality of Castellina in Chianti, a historical Chianti Classico production site, where the productive process that would then become the hallmark of constant quality began.
Between the end of the ‘80s and the beginning of the ‘90s, the Family chose to confront itself with different territories: San Gimignano, where it produces the Vernaccia, and the Maremma, with its Morellino. Here, today, the Cecchi Family represents one of the prominent names both for the extension of its vineyards and for the quality of its wines.
This leads us to the year 2000, a significant year, in which regional borders are crossed to invest in Umbria, in the area of Montefalco and in the wine that is produced in this land: the Sagrantino.
In 2015, Cesare and Andrea, the fourth generation of the Family, chose to invest in Chianti Classico once again by acquiring the historic Villa Rosa. From these vineyards wines will be born that, due to their fresh and mineral flavour, will represent the loyal expression of the land from which they originate.

| Soil composition | The soils of the San Gimignano wine-growing area formed on marine Pliocene deposits and are made of yellow sands and yellow clays, which are often layered on more compact clays present in depth. These soils are strongly characterized by the presence of sand and are almost completely devoid of rocky skeleton. Precisely the sand is the characterizing pedological element for the sapidity and lightness that it gives to the wines that derive from it.The soils of the San Gimignano wine-growing area formed on marine Pliocene deposits and are made of yellow sands and yellow clays, which are often layered on more compact clays present in depth.
