LOMBARDY

In Valtellina, Nebbiolo produces Sforzato di Valtellina or Sfursat di Valtellina DOCG, a wine obtained from the partial drying of the grapes, and Valtellina Superiore DOCG. Oltrepò Pavese has recently established itself as a region of excellence for the production of sparkling wines (Oltrepò Pavese Metodo Classico DOCG). Franciacorta is also a known area for the production of classic method sparkling wines (Franciacorta DOCG). With the same vines, and possibly also Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, the wines of Curtefranca DOC are produced. In the Garda and Colli Mantovani we point out the Garda DOC and the Garda dei Colli Mantovani DOC with the wines based on Groppello, Barbera, Marzemino and Sangiovese. We also remember the Lambrusco Mantovano DOC and the Lugana DOC (white wines based on Trebbiano di Lugana) interregional with the province of Verona. Other Lombard wine areas are San Colombano al Lambro DOC, between Pavia and Milan, with the same cultivated vines of the Oltrepò Pavese and Valcalepio DOC, located between the Bergamesca and Lake Iseo. In this area the native red Moscato di Scanzo vines are cultivated (from which the Moscato di Scanzo DOCG comes)
