History

Three generations of winemakers in Montalcino

The history of the Vasco Sassetti farm begins in 1900 in Castelnuovo dell'Abate with only 4 hectares and a small cellar, thanks to the enthusiasm and entrepreneurial spirit of Vasco Sassetti. In 1985, with the collaboration of his cousin Terzilio Lanzini and wife Giovanna, the farm expands. After Vasco's passing in 2009, the Lanzini family continues its management. Today, the property includes 20 hectares of land, the Osteria Bassomondo, and the Fraschetta agritourism site in Montalcino, while also maintaining a presence in Montalcino Salumi Srl, based in Campagnatico (GR).

In 1985, the company expands

Collaboration begins with cousin Terzilio Lanzini

Indeed, in the course of 1985, the search for new plots of land began, along with studying a functional and suitable setup for the development of his future company. All of this was made possible through the fruitful collaboration with his cousin Terzilio Lanzini and his wife Giovanna.

2009: The Lanzini family continues

New business branches related to the territory are added to the winemaking activity

After Vasco's passing in 2009, the Lanzini family continued to manage the winemaking activity along with the historic Osteria Bassomondo. At the same time, they started agritourism activities, recovering the "Fraschetta" estate, and maintained a strong presence in Montalcino Salumi Srl.
