About this Winery
Familia Falasco has humble beginnings. In 1939 Octavio Rufino Falasco emigrated from Italy to Argentina to start a wine business. He started by selling wine from 2 demi-johns on his bicycle. Eventually he was able to buy vineyards and over time built a prominent and successful business. Today Familia Falasco are one of the contry's leading producers. Octavio's grandson Jorge oversees the running of this family business.
