Description
Juicy and tasty Vermentino, telling a story about sea breeze and Mediterranean forest. A cultured and sophisticated wine which encloses the essence of a territory that feeds on sunlight and sea. A praise dedicated to the hardcore resolve of men who are bound firmly to this Land by deep roots, sucking up from thousands-years-old crystals and breathing in salt air.

Being in love with the place they chose to be their home, the Riviera Ligure di Levante, in particular the Bonassola village, Antonio and Aida become wine-growers, putting to good use knowledge and passion. As the years pass they buy farmhouses and plots of land in the surroundings, including the Cinque Terre, and start to grow vines challenging the slopes which make Ligurian viticulture so heroic, repairing another local typical feature: drywalls. This is how in 2000 Cà du Ferrà is born, a wine-producing farm and farmhouse/agriturismo, which is a dialectal term to describe a "blacksmith’s home" since these lands, which are now crossed by vine rows, were given-over to horse-shoeing.
