ABOUT THIS WINE
The Litorale Vermentino is a white wine from the Maremma Toscana DOC in Tuscany, Italy, produced by Val Delle Rose / Tenuta della Famiglia Cecchi. This wine is primarily made from Vermentino grapes, with a small percentage of other varieties. The Famiglia Cecchi, a historic winemaking family, purchased the Val Delle Rose estate in 1996 and has since been instrumental in developing the Maremma region's viticultural potential. Their vineyards are located on hillsides at an elevation of 150 meters, with sandy, stony soils that impart minerality. The grapes are organically grown, reflecting a commitment to the land.
