FROM “LANGHE” VINYARDS
TO THE HISTORIC HEART OF CHERASCO

Senator Domenico Fracassi began the commercial production of wine from vineyards owned by the family of his mother, Maddalena Ratti Mentone at the turn of the last century. Until then, wines from the family vineyards were produced solely for the private consumption of the family.
At the present time the family’s wine growing estates in the Langhe hills
are owned and managed by the former Senator’s nephew Umberto Fracassi,
who continues to use the label and family name of his great-grandmother.
Traditionally, grapes grown in the family’s Langhe estates have been turned into wine in the cellars of the family compound within the historic center of the City of Cherasco. More recently these cellars have been equipped with modern wine producing apparatus enabling the creation of wines of superior quality.
Below is a sampling of the excellent wines produced under the Umberto Fracassi Ratti Mentone label.
