Quick facts:
- Giovanna’s grandparents, Beatrice and Ferdinando, bought the Cascina delle Rose estate in the 1948.
- Beginning with her first vintage in 1992, Giovanna managed everything herself, from winemaking to the bed-and-breakfast. Today, her two sons have joined to help run the estate.
- The logo was inspired by an interaction between their dog Patata, their cat Mimì, and a swallow, which became their representation of harmony.
