Sassarini

The Cinque Terre wine was already sung since the Middle Ages as a wine used to set up royal tables.

In the Renaissance period it was already considered as an "important" wine in the lists of Italian wines, by Sante Lancerio, bottle holder of Pope Paul III Farnese. His is therefore a history of centuries, where the man with few means at his disposal cultivated the vine and produced the wine of his territory with effort and passion.

Natale Sassarini, in 1968 decided to produce and market the Cinque Terre wine in the taverns and hotels then existing in the area of the province of La Spezia. The cultivation of vines takes place on about 16 hectares of land and thanks to the grape contributors, almost always the same family of winemakers from the 1960s until today. Today the company is run by Giancarlo, son of Natale, and by his wife Marzia. Over the years the cellar has remained the same, although it has obviously been modernised.

Liguria

Liguria is an Italian wine region located in the northwest region of Italy along the Italian Riviera. It is bordered by the Piedmont wine region to the north, the Alps and French wine region of Provence to the west, the Apennine Mountains and the Emilia-Romagna wine region to the east with a small border shared with Tuscany in the south-east along the Ligurian sea.

Liguria has several Denominazione di origine controllata regions with the most notable being the Cinque Terre DOC from cliff side vineyards situated among the five fishing villages of Cinque Terre in the province of La Spezia. The DOC produces light white wines made from grape varieties such as Bosco, Albarola and Vermentino. In the west, is the red wine producing region of Dolceacqua producing wine from the indigenous Rossese grape.
