Camillo Favaro

Was born in Piverone (Piedmont) where he lives and works. For fifteen years he has been dividing his energy and ideas between the profession of winemaker in the family cellars in Canavese and the creative agency ArtevinoStudio, specializing in communication and design projects for wineries. He recounted his early Burgundian forays in the volume Vini e percorsi di Borgogna (Artevino, 2007), which was the start of it all. Among his latest works is the book Everyone Calls it Lambrusco (Fil-Rouge, 2017). With Giampaolo Gravina he wrote the first edition of Vini e Terre di Borgogna (Artevino) in 2012.

He has worked in wine for over 20 years, most of them as a coeditor of the wine guide Vini d’Italia published by L’Espresso. His many books on wine include two Italian editions of Vini e Terre di Borgogna (both with Camillo Favaro), Vini da scoprire, La riscossa dei vini leggeri and Vini artigianali italiani (all with Armando Castagno and Fabio Rizzari).
