Featured Winery: Cennatotio

ME Fine Wines proudly represents Cennatoio in Las Vegas

Cennatoio

Cennatoio is a commercial farm run since 1970 by Leandro, Gabriella and, more recently, their son Emiliano Alessi. A certified organic farm, Cennatoio commands a spectacular view of the Chianti countryside with its hills blanketed by vineyards and olive orchards and dotted with churches, castles and scattered stands of oaks. The special character of the soil, which is stony and hard to work, and its exposure to the South, which is ideal for varieties like Sangiovese, Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, are important factors in the production of wines that are robust, soft and endowed with the scent of wild fruits.

The premium vineyards at Cennatoio, separated by olive orchards, cover a total of 10 hectares (24.7 acres) and enjoy the South/Southeast exposure on the border between Florence and Siena.

Cennatoio uses a vinification system that respects the local wine making tradition, while at the same time employing the most advanced techniques. Learn more at www.cennatoio.it
