He was thus the first official 'palatista' (= taster) of Italy and knew how to separate the wheat from the chaff. This is very useful if you trade in wine. Luigi selected the best chiantis and ensured that the high quality of Tuscan wine received attention, both within and especially outside Italy. Cecchi thus became one of the first international wine brands. In the beginning, everything revolved around chianti.
