The wine region of Oltrepò Pavese

Little-known Lombardy, home of Italian Pinot Nero (3rd largest area worldwide). Refined Metodo Classico DOCG sparklers: fine bubbles with notes of apple, citrus, brioche and almond, taut finish. Also still red versions: fleshy Pinot Nero (cherry, undergrowth), fruity, slightly fizzy Bonarda, lively Croatina and bright Barbera. Mineral Riesling, sweet, musky Moscato in whites.


The wine region of Lombardia

Three poles. Franciacorta DOCG, Italy's answer to Champagne: elegant brioche traditional-method sparklers (Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Pinot Blanc), fine bubble and mineral profile. Alpine Valtellina: Nebbiolo (alias Chiavennasca) with fine tannins and red fruits, powerful Sforzato passito. Oltrepò Pavese: fresh Pinot Noir and fruity-sparkling Bonarda.

The word of the wine: Champagne rosé

Often obtained by adding red wines (from Champagne), it is even the only vineyard where this practice is allowed. Some producers prefer the practice used in other regions, i.e. a short maceration to extract sufficient colouring matter. This results in winey rosés for meals. Elegant aperitif rosé is more often made from red wine coloured Chardonnay. Rosés can be vintage or non vintage.
