Informazioni sull'esperienza
This tasting will accompany you in understanding our production philosophy: in fact, we will taste five of our wines accompanied by savory cookies from the renowned Flamigni bakery, specially selected to emphasize the taste of the wine.
The story of sassotondo will be told in color: the white Isolina, the rosé Lady Marmalade and the three different shades of red, the Sassotondo Rosso, the Ombra Blu and the award-winning and iconic San Lorenzo, our cherry wine from the old vineyard, produced in a vineyard that is right in front of the breathtaking view of the village of Pitigliano.

Informazioni sull'host
Conducted with organic farming methods, Sassotondo is the typical farm of this "marginal" area of the Tuscan Maremma where, in addition to permanent crops (vines and olives) there are arable crops, pastures, woods, interspersed with deep gorges carved into the tuff by inconstant streams.
The 72 hectares are located between Sorano and Pitigliano. Vineyards occupy about 12 hectares: 8 red grapes (Ciliegiolo, Sangiovese and Merlot) and 4 white grapes (Trebbiano, Greco, Sauvignon). Ciliegiolo, historical grape of Maremma, has found in the old vineyard of San Lorenzo, in front of the breathtaking view of Pitigliano, its ideal terroir. Sassotondo has a spectacular underground cellar, completely dug in the tuff. Sassotondo's wines are the expression of this powerful and mysterious territory: the autochthonous vines and an environment in some ways extreme, with tuff that emerges everywhere, produce fine and elegant wines, naturally concentrated, sapid and spicy.
