Fattoria Terre del Marchesato is a small winery managed by the Fuselli family. Vineyards are located in the heart of the best production area of Bolgheri, right in the middle of the plots of land from which are produced the most renowned wines of the area such as Sassicaia, Ornellaia and Guado al Tasso.

The territory has an ancient rural history, in which nobles and sharecroppers have often lived together and cooperated. Terre del Marchesato, whose name is inspired to the old Marquis who owned the land before 1954, is a piece of this history. Definitively converted into a winery in 1998, the company has adhered since the beginning to the DOC Bolgheri.

Aspiring to carve out a small but significant space among the best producers of Bolgheri, since the beginning of the activity, they have tried to pursue high levels of excellence so that their wines express not only the uniqueness of the terroir, but also the identity and tradition of their family history...
