Description
The vineyards are located in the heart of the Oltrepò Pavese (Lombardy), almost exactly at 45º latitude N. The location is mentioned in documents dating back to year 1718, as “Bosco dei Pianori”. All the wines come from grapes organically grown within the estate, applying and perfecting the tradition and the experience of a family involved in agriculture for generations.
Made from Croatina (45%), Barbera (45%) and Vespolina/Uva rara (10%) grapes. Intense deep ruby-red colour. Full and slightly tannic flavour, with notes of marasca cherry and violets and medium aromatic persistency. Robust and full-bodied, a great wine for ageing. Aged in wood for 24 months.
