The story
The village of Camigliano has ancient origins and today is home to the eponymous winery. The estate was purchased by the Ghezzi family in 1957 and in the following years, thanks to the commitment of the next generation, vineyards and production facilities were renewed, an underground cellar integrated into the landscape was built, and the estate’s wine production was expanded.
Production philosophy
