The farm business was born in 2001 for a bet of a man, Franco Elampini: producing good wine  with the  grapes of his own fields, just how it used to be in the past.

In the heartland of Valpolicella, the wine cellar Vigna ‘800 houses the finest wines of our tradition.

A place of taste and pleasure in order to appreciate the terroir of one of the most beautiful areas in Italy
