Ceccante, produced in the renowned Maremma Toscana DOC area, represents a Cabernet Sauvignon of great character and refinement. The Maremma territory, with its warm and sunny climate combined with mineral-rich soils, gives the grape variety a typical expressiveness, capable of producing robust and harmonious wines. This Cabernet Sauvignon stands out for its intense red color, enriched with ruby reflections that anticipate the olfactory complexity.

On the nose, aromas of ripe red fruits, such as cherry and plum, emerge, accompanied by light vegetal notes and spicy accents, which offer intense and enveloping scents. On the palate, the structure is solid thanks to well-defined but velvety tannins, supported by an excellent balance between freshness and body. The aging, often carried out in oak barrels, contributes to giving elegance and depth, enriching the wine with hints of vanilla and tobacco.

Perfect with red meat dishes, game, or aged cheeses, the Ceccante Jeroboam is a full expression of the vitality and splendor of the Maremma, capable of accompanying important moments with its decisive and sophisticated imprint.

Winery history
A project led by Giancarlo and Saverio Notari that took shape in the late 1990s: the Grillesino estate was established as a production property affiliated with the Compagnia del Vino group and has been developed through vineyard work and expansions of the winery, enhancing selected clones in collaboration with the Università di Agraria di Firenze and the Institut d'Oenologie de Bordeaux.
Production philosophy
Production focused on the typicity of the territory: use of modern winery technologies combined with light filtration treatments to preserve the character of the native grapes; experimentation with clones and varieties to produce wines recognizable as being from the Maremma.
