Saseti is named for the little stones found in the limestone of the terraced vineyards.

The label features five wine-colored handprints, those of husband-wife vignaioli Carlo and Alessandra Zantedeschi and their three children.

The exact blend is 50% Corvina, 20% Corvinone, 20% Rondinella, 10% Oselata and Molinara.

These traditional Valpolicella varieties were planted in 2008, trained on wires in guyot rather than in pergola for greater concentration in this Superiore bottling. 

The fruit is destemmed and gently pressed; spontaneous fermentation takes place with native yeasts and without sulfur in concrete and steel tanks. Maceration lasts a week or less with periodic manual punch downs. The wine is aged in tank for about three months and then bottled in February after the harvest.
