First of all, I have to admit that I didn't know much about Roero. Maybe I also underestimated the region because of previous experiences. But when I tasted the wines of Valfaccenda<\/a><\/strong> tasted, I was surprised by its richness and bewildered by its complexity. That was more than enough to tickle my curiosity.

I started researching the land and soil and through a very pleasant interview with Luca Faccenda, I discovered a unique approach to winemaking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To learn more about the region, I had to take a few steps back in time:
The first took me to the Pleistocene, when a great mass of water poured into the Adriatic Sea and so de facto<\/em> the Po Valley (Pianura Padana) was created, to which the Roero belongs. This dramatic event left behind an incredibly rich soil that was once the bottom of the sea and is now the gentle landscape where the grapes grow. I have to admit that reading about it was a bit like going back to school, as this is a milestone in the geological shaping of northern Italy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
