On the gentle hills of Castellarano,where clay ravines carve the landscape and the woods shelter the fields from the wind,Il Farneto takes shape. In the early 1990s,Marco Bertoni set out to revive an agricultural landscape that had been slowly fading,giving it a new voice through organic and biodynamic viticulture.

The project grows with intention,guided by observation rather than haste.The 8 hectares of vineyards form a patchwork of biodiversity: Spergola,the emblematic local grape,thrives alongside Lambrusco, Marzemino,and a few international varieties that have learned to follow the rhythm of the plateau.
