The winemaking vocation of the family dates back to the beginning of the latest century but only in recent times it has become a professional activity. There are so many memories, passed down from generation to generation, related to the collection and crushing of grapes: a long story about hard work and passion for the land. A tale that often, by the will or fate, was written by women.
Azienda Agricola Baraccone owes its name to the locality of the same name, at Folignano di Ponte dell’Olio, where, at the beginning of the twentieth century, the winery that operates here was founded, as amateur for about a century, and where still today the older vineyards are located. Here, in the past, traveling carousels stopped and touring circus represented their shows ("Baraccone" in the Piacenza dialect means "carousel"). From these memories the company’s logo depicting a juggler took shape.
