About
Carmine Facchino, his sons Giorgio and Diego and his wife Maria Teresa grow the vineyards on their land situated on the hills of Roccagrimalda, a small middle-age village close to Ovada – a town in the heart of Orba Valley bordering Stura Valley – with the same passion as his father’s that brought him to Piedmont from Campania when he was just a little boy.The Facchinos have always worked in the vineyards applying traditional methods; The hand-made harvest follows a careful selection of the grapes; this way, it is possible to take to the cellars intact bunches of grapes that are promptly processed. Our passion gives birth to genuine wines that are the fruit of our love for wine and tradition. Unique and incomparable wines have been produced in our land since almost 70 years; they truly represent the farmers’ wisdom and the great potential of our territory. Thanks to the particular composition of our soils, which are better known as “the white lands of Ovada” and to the technologic functionality meeting Piedmontese wine-making tradition, we produce wines that preserve the scents and the characteristics of the territory around Ovada. We believe that quality is our primary goal and that we should all remember that the production of great wines starts from the vineyards.
