The main grape in this red wine is derived from the word "cherry" in Italian, and its intense, ruby red color calls that fruit to mind.
Ciliegiolo must make up a minimum 85% of the wine, and up to 15% local red grapes may also be added.
The aroma is intense, vinous and characteristic, while the taste is ample, dry and balanced.

Did you know?
Italy extends over 10 latitudes – from continental climate to subtropical climate?
So let’s just get one thing straight: at Lombardia (or Lombardy), Italy’s most populated and industrialized region, doesn’t exactly prioritize wine production. Actually, the combined output isn’t that significant, and what is produced is normally consumed locally, especially the wines from Oltrepò Pavese.
