Val delle Rose is an estate in Località Poggio La Mozza in Grosseto in the Maremma region of Tuscany, Italy. Red wines are made under the Morellino di Scansano DOCG. In July 1996, the Cecchi family family purchased the Val delle Rose winery. This made Cecchi the first of the Tuscan wine merchants to buy land here. In 1997 Kim Milne of International Wine Services worked for Cecchi and was, I think, based here.

Owner: Cecchi (Tuscany-based merchant and wine-grower).
