The Grasso family have been making wine since 1927, but have only bottling all their production since the mid-1980s, when Alessio Federico (the current proprietor) took over from his father Silvio. He now farms 11 hectares (27 acres), 5 estate-owned and 6 leased, with his wife Marilena, and their sons Paolo, an enologist Food Technology degree, and Silvio.
