Frequently Asked Questions

What kinds of wines are Farina known for?
Farina is best known for producing classic red wines from Italy’s Valpolicella region, particularly Amarone della Valpolicella, Ripasso della Valpolicella, and Valpolicella Classico. These wines are made primarily from indigenous grape varieties such as Corvina, Corvinone, Rondinella, and Molinara. Farina’s Amarone is renowned for its richness and depth, made using the appassimento method where grapes are dried before fermentation to concentrate flavours. It offers notes of dried fruit, spice, and cocoa, with a full-bodied and velvety mouthfeel. Their Ripasso style bridges the gap between Valpolicella Classico and Amarone, offering boldness with freshness and structure. Farina is also recognised for its elegant red blends and a few white wines, such as Lugana. The winery’s portfolio celebrates traditional craftsmanship while offering diverse expressions suited to different preferences and occasions.

Where are Farina wines made?
Farina wines are produced in the Valpolicella Classica area within the Veneto region of northeastern Italy. This area is known for its rolling hills, limestone-rich soils, and favourable microclimate influenced by nearby Lake Garda and the Lessini Mountains. These geographic features provide excellent conditions for cultivating grapes like Corvina, Rondinella, and Molinara—the backbone of Valpolicella wines. The Farina estate is located near San Pietro in Cariano, one of the key villages in the historical Valpolicella zone. Here, the family operates vineyards that are farmed with a focus on sustainability and respect for tradition. In the cellar, Farina balances modern winemaking techniques with traditional practices, such as drying grapes for Amarone and utilising large Slavonian oak barrels for ageing. Their dedication to expressing the nuances of place and grape variety places Farina among the respected names in this historic wine-producing region.

What are the best Farina wines?
Among Farina’s most celebrated wines is the Amarone della Valpolicella Classico, a powerful, age-worthy red with layers of dried fruit, spice, chocolate, and earthy complexity. It is crafted using the traditional appassimento method and aged in oak for extended periods to develop richness and structure. Another standout is the Valpolicella Ripasso Classico Superiore, a wine that undergoes a secondary fermentation on Amarone lees, resulting in a bold yet balanced profile with notes of cherry, plum, and subtle tannins. The Valpolicella Classico offers a lighter, fruit-driven expression, ideal for everyday drinking, while the Lugana DOC—a white wine made from Trebbiano di Lugana—adds freshness and elegance to the range. These wines are consistently praised for their craftsmanship, regional expression, and versatility, making them top picks for those looking to experience the essence of Veneto’s winemaking heritage.

Are Farina wines affordable?
Farina wines offer excellent value across their range, striking a balance between quality and affordability. While some of their higher-tier offerings like Amarone may come at a premium due to the labour-intensive production method and ageing potential, the pricing remains competitive compared to other producers in the region. Their Ripasso and Valpolicella Classico wines are more accessible and offer a taste of traditional winemaking at a reasonable cost. Even their Amarone, which reflects deep concentration and age-worthy structure, is considered well-priced given its craftsmanship and complexity. For wine lovers seeking authentic Italian reds with depth, personality, and a link to regional tradition, Farina provides a compelling option without the high-end luxury markup. This makes their wines appealing to both casual drinkers and serious enthusiasts alike.
