Pasetti

The history of the Pasetti winery, 5 generations long, begins in the Bourbon era and reaches the present day. The turning point for the company arrives in the 60s, with the beginning of its own winemaking: the result is extremely positive and the company manages to make a name for itself by growing turnover and customers.

In the 80s, it was Mimmo Pasetti , who had already started studying oenology, who gave the company the push to dare and bottle his Montepulciano: he did it to celebrate the birth of his daughter Francesca, a little girl with red hair just like his father Franco's mother, Donna Rachele.

This is how Testarossa was born, the symbol of the winery and of the family, which for 5 generations has carried on the work of viticulture with the same passion and determination.

Mimmo Pasetti today runs the company and is a visionary entrepreneur: his project came to life at the beginning of the new millennium, when he began purchasing the first land in Pescosansonesco, in the heart of the Gran Sasso and Monti della Laga National Park.

The soil of Pescosansonesco, clayey-limestone and rich in skeleton, is perfect for the cultivation of Montepulciano d'Abruzzo; furthermore, the significant temperature variations between day and night in this place at 550 meters above sea level mean that the wine has a sensorial profile of extraordinary elegance and quality.

The process of reconversion from the coastal area to the foothills then begins, which will continue with the acquisition of other lands in Capestrano, Castiglione a Casauria and Ofena: the choice to produce in these places means that the Pasetti company is the only one in Italy which can still boast the National Park logo on its bottles.

Today Mimmo manages the company together with his three sons who have divided the work:

Francesca Rachele manages the administrative part, Massimo the export and international visibility and Davide, who is an oenologist and takes care of the production of the wines.
