Full description
Join an immersive experience at a family-run organic winery in the heart of the Oltrepò Pavese, where history, innovation, and sustainability unite. Set against the backdrop of rolling hills and ancient vineyards, this guided tour offers a comprehensive look at the organic winemaking process, from the vine to the bottle.Your experience begins with a guided walk through the winery’s organic vineyards, where vines have been cultivated without synthetic chemicals or pesticides. The Oltrepò Pavese region is renowned for its unique terroir, with a climate and soil composition that are ideal for producing high-quality grapes. You’ll learn how the local environment shapes the character of the wines, particularly those made from the region’s flagship grape varieties like Pinot Noir, Riesling, and Bonarda.
After exploring the vineyards, you’ll move to the production area to witness the entire winemaking process. Here, you’ll discover how the winery combines time-honored techniques with modern organic practices to craft their distinctive wines. The tour offers insights into the fermentation process for both red and white wines, as well as the careful methods used to create the winery’s renowned sparkling wines.The winery specializes in crafting organic Pinot Noir, which is known for its delicate complexity, as well as crisp, refreshing Riesling, a white wine that thrives in this region. During the visit, you’ll learn about the traditional “methode champenoise” used for producing sparkling wines. This labor-intensive process, also known as the classic method, involves secondary fermentation in the bottle, which gives the sparkling wines their fine bubbles and nuanced flavors.
You’ll also see the oak barrels where the red wines are aged. These barrels play a crucial role in developing the structure and complexity of the wines, particularly the full-bodied reds, which mature slowly in these wooden vessels, absorbing subtle flavors that enhance their depth. The blending of tradition with organic practices ensures that each bottle reflects the purest expression of the land.
Following the production tour, the highlight of the experience awaits: the wine tasting. You’ll sample 4 organic wines.Whether you’re savoring a crisp white Riesling, a bold red Pinot Noir, or a delicate sparkling wine made using the traditional “Metodo Classico.”, you’ll appreciate the care and skill that goes into each bottle.To complete the experience, the wines are paired with a delicious food platter featuring locally sourced cured meats and cheeses. These artisanal products are carefully selected to complement the wines, enhancing your tasting experience with rich, authentic flavors from the region. The combination of organic wines and local produce creates a sensory journey that encapsulates the essence of Oltrepò Pavese’s food and wine culture.This tour offers a wonderful opportunity to learn about the intricate process of organic winemaking while enjoying the beautiful surroundings of a historic wine-producing region.
