   Fattoria Moretto is currently run by Fausto and Fabio, the third generation of the Altariva family. The winery's origins trace back to the early 1960s when their grandfather, Antonio Altariva, moved the family from Pavullo nel Frignano to the hills of Castelvetro to start a winemaking venture under a sharecropping contract.

   In 1995, Fausto decided to convert vineyard cultivation to the "integrated production" method, marking the first step towards organic farming. Today, Fattoria Moretto's production is focused on expressing the unique characteristics of the Lambrusco Grasparossa territory, emphasizing quality over quantity. In the heart of the territory of Lambrusco Grasparossa, about 200 meters above sea level, Fausto and Fabio Altariva feelingly cultivated their lands. The farm, completely run with organic methods, is extended into non-adjacent parcels on the hills of Castelvetro. The area has good ventilation which tempers the summer heat and protects plants from disease.
