Steep slate vine terraces above a winding river at blue-hour dawn, mist in the valley and a village with a church tower on the far bank

Born of slate. Made with patience.

Fourteen hectares of steep terraces, shaped by the river and tended by the Ferrandi family.
Valle Orna · Family grown

We farm slowly, listen closely, and let each terrace speak in its own voice.

Wine from a landscape that asks for patience: Riesling, Pinot Noir and a traditional-method sparkling wine from fourteen hectares of slate above the river.

01 — The wines

Three expressions of one valley.

Each bottle is one slope and one year. Open a bottle for its notes and price at the cellar door.

Come up the hill. Stay awhile.

Three ways to meet Valle Orna, from the cellar to the harvest terraces.
A long vaulted stone cellar lined with oak barrels, morning light falling through arched windows onto a wet floor

“Time does its quiet work here.”

— Livia Ferrandi, winemaker
04 — The family
