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.
