Discovering the oldest winemakers in 5 Terre- A sensory experience

The idea of the founder of the Cantina Sassarini, Mr. Natale, was decidedly oriented towards the future.
In the family everyone made wine for their own consumption and Christmas must have perceived the potential of a wine market that could develop over the years. He then built his cellar and gathered around him numerous farmers who cultivated their vineyards incessantly with pride and skill. Few others followed this path, but in the last twenty years a group of "mad angels" (cit: Veronelli) recovered the lands of their grandparents and fathers, building dry stone walls and planting the vineyard again. The horizon of Natale Sassarini now seems to merge in the horizon of all the Cinque Terre winemakers and their son Giancarlo who proudly carries on the work begun half a century ago. The fiftieth anniversary of the Sassarini winery can be the first stone to consolidate an oenological tradition of the Cinque Terre that has been lacking until today.

The idea of the founder of the Cantina Sassarini, Mr. Natale, was decidedly oriented towards the future.
He perceived the quality and economic interest in the production of a local wine, even before the DESIGNATION OF ORIGIN (DOC labelling for wines), was sanctioned with the 1973 specification.
The tastings, which serve to better perceive this territory, are generally guided by the founder's granddaughter, Laura.

With this wine tour and tasting you may decide the type of tasting according to the number of glasses you want to discover:

4 wines : 29 € per person

5 wines: 37 € per person

7 wines: 53 € per person

Each of these tour includes also a plate with cold cuts and - most important - a glass of sciacchetra. This is the typical sweet wine from Le Cinque Terre. The cultivation of this vineyards is so hard that the Sciacchetrà makers are called heroic viticulturists!
