Val delle Rose, founded by the historic Cecchi family in 1996, is a pioneer of the Maremma region and today the largest winery in the Morellino di Scansano appellation. Originally 25 hectares, the estate expanded to 150 hectares as the family applied innovative farming methods informed by in-depth soil studies, unlocking the land’s exceptional potential. Focused on Sangiovese, alongside Vermentino and select international grapes, Val delle Rose combines organic viticulture with careful vineyard management to produce wines that express the estate’s diverse soils, Mediterranean influence, and the Cecchi family’s commitment to quality.
