Lombardy

Lombardia.png

The cultivation of grape vines in Lombardy dates back to VII-V century BC by Atestini, Etruscans and Ligurians, even if there is archaeological evidence to testify the presence of vines as early as prehistoric times. The climate of the region is very diverse, generally it boasts a continental climate thanks to the presence of the Great Lakes, but also in the mountainous areas and alpine valleys of Valtellina, where there is a good exposure to the sun with the absence of fog, this affords a milder climate than in the plains. Among the most important red grapes produced here, there is nebbiolo in Valtellina, barbera, bonarda, croatina, merlot and cabernet;pinot noir is produced in Oltrepò Pavese and in Franciacorta that together with the chardonnaygrape contribute to the production of sparkling wines. Apart from chardonnay, other white grapes produced are the tocai friulano, pinot blanc, riesling and various trebbiano.

Il Baldo, Bonarda Dell' Oltrepò Pavese DOC

DIRECTLY TO YOUR HOME!

The land of Oltrepò Pavese is the most suitable one for the production of Bonarda and Finigeto has reached with this wine a high quality level. The soil characteristics and the excellent exposure together with the deliberately limited production per plant and the selection of the grapes, entirely harvested by hand, some days later than the normal harvest time, determined the features of this Bonarda with an excellent completeness of bouquets and flavors perfectly matched to each other.

Riserva del Lupo, Lugana DOC

DIRECTLY TO YOUR HOME!

I think it\'s truly outstanding. Probably one of the best Lugana wines I have ever had the chance to try. I\'ve drunk it several times already, and I have always found it has a very distinctive character. Perhaps it\'s a little difficult to understand at the moment, because it\'s still closed and nervous. But, in my opinion, there is a fascinating future in store for it...

Lugana DOC Superiore

DIRECTLY TO YOUR HOME!

It starts fermentation in woodden barrel (25 hl) ending in it as well and coming into the market after 24 months. This long period in barrel gives to this wine a strong and special character, that we consider Superior.

Rosa dei Frati, Riviera del Garda Bresciano DOC

DIRECTLY TO YOUR HOME!

The southern banks of the Benaco have long preserved the tradition of an outstanding, fresh and graceful wine like the Rosa dei Frati. A high level Rosé with a great capacity to surprise with its simple authority. Fresh, delicate yet sharp at the same time, it is capable of being the centrepiece of the table. To the nose, there are clear hints of hawthorn flowers, green apple, white almond and wild cherry. In the mouth, it is tasty, fresh, savoury and able to stimulate the palate thanks to its sharp acidity and hints of small red fruit. The ease of drinking encourages a carefree attitude by the second glass. Recommended with cured meats, fried vegetables, mushrooms, tomato and mozzarella salad, delicate pasta and spring risottos, light white meat and strongly flavoured fish.
