TENUTA DI FRASSINETO

The complex called Villa-Fattoria di Frassineto, due to its architectural characteristics, its history and its geographical position, constitutes a particularly important testimony from the historical and artistic point of view of the settlements with Villa-Fattoria typology, dating back to the century. XVII and subsequently modified in the nineteenth century.

The ownership of the estate was succeeded by important people: Vasari, the Grand Duke of Tuscany, Baroness Fiorella Favard de l’Anglade, Count Sidney di James (Gioacchino) Hertz, who had been conferred the title of Count of Frassineto by the king . The property then passed to his son, Count Alfredo who, in turn, bequeathed it to his daughter Marchesa Giuliana Citterio of Frassineto, already interested in the production of white wine.

The company wants to express, through the cultivated vines, the great potential of the land.
This objective is pursued through:

  • Careful and accurate management of the vineyard-environment heritage;
  • A correct and natural process of transformation of grapes into wine in accordance with the most modern winemaking techniques, designed to enhance the final product.

The Tenuta di Frassineto winery is designed with a production cycle that allows sophisticated and, at the same time, flexible processing “steps”, through the use of technologically advanced equipment, controlled by computerized management systems. With these technological innovations it is possible, as required by modern oenology, to control all processing phases through an organized chain, also to implement the traceability system in the agri-food supply chains, with facilitation of the management and control of the quality system.
