Ep. 2083 Luca Ferraris, Ferraris Agricola | On The Road With Stevie Kim

Welcome to Episode 2083 of On The Road Special Edition. In this episode, Stevie Kim visits Ferraris Agricola vineyard to discover Barbera D'Asti with Luca Ferraris, of Ferraris Agricola    Discover the history of the ancient estate where the winery is located, the development of this extraordinary family winery, and the winemaking techniques involved in producing its famous wines    More about today’s winery:     The history of the Ferraris Agricola winery began when great-grandfather Luigi emigrated to America and found gold during the "Golden rush" in California. Thanks to his income, great-grandmother Teresa, who had remained in Italy, had the opportunity to make his dreams come true. In 1921 she bought the house, in Castagnole Monferrato, in Via al Castello, home of the first Ferraris winery. Two years later, grandfather Martino bought the "Casot", a rural farmhouse in the middle of a 40,000 square meter plot where today one of the most representative vineyards of the company stands. However, the production of wine remained a passion and never a job. Thus, for decades, the grapes were given to the town's Social Cooperative.    Connect  Website: https://ferrarisagricola.com/en/  Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ferrarisagricola    More about the host Stevie Kim:  Stevie Kim hosts Clubhouse sessions each week (visit Italian Wine Club & Wine Business on Clubhouse), these recorded sessions are then released on the podcast to immortalize them!
