The Farina family has roots in agriculture and
winemaking tracing back to the beginning of
the 16th century. Inspired by this long family
history, Remo Farina was able to combine
the most modern concepts in winemaking
technology with ancient, time-tested
methods to produce rich, elegant wines.
Today the winery is managed by the new
generation and continues to produce lovely
fresh white wines and exquisite red wines
that have great body and balance with a
wonderful combination of sweet fruit and
traditional dried fruit blended with earthy
undertones and a dry complex pleasant
finish.

Farina's wines are made from 45 hectares of
selected vineyards of Valpolicella Classica.
Ten hectares are owned by Farina and 35
belonging to trusted growers who have worked
with the Farina family for many years. The
Farina family has two historic vineyards that
are real crus of Valpolicella. The Montefante
vineyard (300m ASL), with its tuffaceous,
clayey and calcareous soil and ideal hilly
exposure, is an ideal habitat for the Corvina
used for the reserve Amarone Montefante. The
other cru is the Montecorna vineyard , located
on Mount Masua, which is characterized by an
extraordinary calcareous soil, ideal for the
production of the grapes used for the
Valpolicella Ripasso Montecorna.
