The story
The Mantellassi family, originally from Pistoia, settled in the Scansano/Magliano area in the 19th century. The modern enterprise took shape in the 1960s with the planting of the first vineyards in Banditaccia. The estate played a decisive role in the process that led to the recognition of Morellino di Scansano as a denomination. Over the years the property and its production have expanded, establishing Mantellassi as a historic presence in the Maremma.
