Located in the Ligurian Riviera at Albenga between the hills and the Mediterranean sea, Cascina Fèipu was founded in 1960's when Agostino Parodi began converting his father's (Filippo - Fèipu in dialect) orchards to grape growing. Since there were no appellations for Ligurian wine at the time, Agostino chose to name the winery after his father and their locality, Massaretti.

Pigato is also known as Vermentino, and this is one of the great examples of the variety.
