Az. Agr. Giorgio Cecchetto s.a. Details
GIORGIO CECCHETTO caused a scandal among his fellow Veneto producer during the 1990s when he decided to revive the Raboso del Piave grape variety in an innovative new style, leaving a portion of the grapes (15% to 30%) to dry. Now this method has shaped the new DOCG of Piave Malanotte, named after the village of Tezze di Piave Malanotte in Treviso.Making Raboso is "an act of faith", says Cecchetto. The rustic variety - whose precursor was mentioned by Pliny the Elder in his "Naturalis Historia" - is today cultivated close to the river Piave throughout the Treviso plain, from Conegliano to Vazzola, up to Oderzo, Motta di Livenza and San Donà di Piave.This is an area where it would be more profitable to make Prosecco, and yet Cecchetto is content to continue the work of his father, who produced just 400 hectoliters of wine, but on a larger scale. To date he has amassed more than 140 hectares of vines, either owned or rented.Late-ripering, it requires maceration, yielding a wine of great body, but one that rewards patience: harsh and tannic when young, it mellows and softens to display floral and cherry notes with oak aging.-Tasting notes.
