The wine region of Valcamonica
Lombard IGT in the great north-east valley of Brescia, heroic viticulture on mountain terraces (142 ha) across 29 communes. Merlot and Marzemino lead in reds (≥60% of the Rosso) — fruity and supple with cherry, plum, strawberry, fragrant violet and gentle spices, rounded tannins and juicy flesh. Riesling Renano and Müller-Thurgau in fresh alpine whites with citrus, green apple and a mineral hint. Passito as the aromatic speciality.
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.
