| La Falconiera is a patrician farmhouse built in 1731 by the Abbot Ferrando on the ancient ruins of an Arabic farmhouse, belongs to the owner since many generations, since the Abbot left Genova for political reasons and settled in Sicily, establishing his feud near Alcamo, a town of Arabic origin famous for its wines. The property and the surrounding lands have been dedicated for
centuries to grapevines and olive trees cultivations surrounding the big valley where the property is located.
