STEFANO FARINA<br />
Stefano<br />
Farina<br />
Azienda Agricola Di Majo Norante is located to the north of the Gargano in<br />
Molise on the estate of the Marquees Norante of Santa Cristina. Since the<br />
1800’s its ancestors have dedicated themselves to vine cultivation (ancient wine<br />
cellars are located under the main town square and the old palace in<br />
Campomarino). In 1968, a modern canteen was constructed, along with the<br />
first replanted vines in the Ramitello zone. This zone has northeastern exposure,<br />
constant summer breezes, a light limestone soil, and a slope toward the<br />
Scabolone and Madonna Grande valleys, combining to create a very favorable<br />
grape growing environment.<br />
Di Majo Norante uses only estate grown grapes, cultivated without the use of<br />
chemical or synthetic additives, yielding a product that can be considered<br />
“biological”. Passion and love for the grapes are combined with the most<br />
advanced technology in farming methods and production facilities.<br />
PIEDMONT, ITALY<br />
Giancarlo, Bruno and Gino Farina, sons of the founder, manage this family<br />
winery, located in Diano d'Alba, in the heart of Dolcetto country. Using grapes<br />
from 16 acres of their own vineyards, Stefano Farina creates modern styled<br />
wines with berry and cedar character. Consistency and the constant search<br />
for quality with respect to value are the hallmarks of this pioneering family.<br />
