Farina Wines

Farina is a family business where the values of love, honesty, generosity, cooperation and respect reverberate beyond the confines of our homes and winery to the Valpolicella community, those who work with us, and the land that has been so generous to us.

We've encapsulated our commitment to the people we work with through the Transparency project. It requires that suppliers, importers and collaborators be "profiled" and "monitorable". From a more personal point of view, we want to share the stories of the people who have helped make Farina what it is today. The full data set is published on the farinatransparency.com website. Anyone can access information about the winegrowers, employees, importers and consultancies. Detailed information about the winegrowers include: family name, company photos, history, description of the vineyard’s area, surface, altitude, farming system, vines, exposure, and soil composition. The database is updated periodically. The visual repertoire presents the stages of maturation and management of the vineyard, and interviews with the vignerons.

We believe that a positive, healthy community is just as key to the health of the Valpolicella, as the many actions we continue to implement towards sustainability in the vineyard and winery.

The vineyard

January-February: Pruning

While the vine is dormant, it is the hand of the man who models its shape and prepares it for the next growing season and grape harvest.

March: Budbreak

The vine shoots bind to the trellis, and the first buds begin to break. At this time, we witness the phenomenon of the vine’s weeping when luminous drops descend from the shoots as evidence of new lymph.

April: Bud burst

The vine finally awakens in spring; the first shoots appear, and the vineyard turns bright green.

May: Flowering

June-July: fruit setting

Only less than half of the flowers will be pollinated and go on to form bunches. The moment of fruit set is one of the most critical and delicate moments in the growing season. Bunches risk falling (coulure) or stretch into tendrils (spinning) to avoid losing the availability of nutrients.

August: Veraison

The grapes begin to take on color as the final phase of ripening begins. The hard green berries increase in volume and develop sugar content as the levels of acidity fall. A white floury-like bloom appears on the bunches that will protect the grapes from atmospheric aggressions until harvest.

September-October: Harvest

When the bunches are ripe, and the grapes have reached a balanced degree of acidity and sweetness, the harvest begins strictly by hand. The first meticulous selection is set aside to dry in small crates to produce Amarone and Recioto in the winter.

November-December: Fall of leaves

The work of the vine is done, and the foliage explodes in a kaleidoscope of colors, shades, and emotions. The long winter hibernation slowly begins.

Sustainability

Sustainability is central to the company’s strategy. This clear stance on the environmental and social impact of its business has also prompted the Farina company to make new choices and launch initiatives aimed at ensuring sustainable standards for its production and consumers.

The Valpantena, north of Verona, with the municipality of Grezzana and the East or “extended” Valpolicella, includes the Valleys of Squaranto, Illasi, Mezzane, Tramigna, and Alpone, and together, define the remaining border areas of Valpolicella.
