      The History of Lombardy

      Lombardy, located in northern Italy, has a rich winemaking history dating back to antiquity. The region has been influenced over the centuries by various cultures, including the Romans, Lombards, and Venetians, contributing to the diversity of the local wine culture. During the Middle Ages, Lombardy was an important trade center, and its wines were highly valued. The region is known for its fertile soils, excellent microclimates, and the presence of large lakes like Lake Garda and Lake Como, which create favorable conditions for viticulture.

      Famous Wines from Lombardy

      Lombardy offers a broad range of wines, both red and white, that have gained international recognition. Franciacorta is a prestigious sparkling wine produced using the traditional method, similar to Champagne. Made from Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Pinot Blanc grapes, Franciacorta offers refined bubbles and complex flavors of green apple, citrus, and toast. Valtellina Superiore is a notable red wine from the Valtellina valley in Lombardy. Made from the Nebbiolo grape (locally known as Chiavennasca), this wine has aromas of red fruit, violets, and herbs, with an elegant structure. Finally, Sforzato is a unique red wine from Valtellina made from dried Nebbiolo grapes. This process gives the wine a deep concentration, with flavors of dried fruit, chocolate, and spices. At ONWINE, we offer a wide range of wines from the Lombardy region, but a recommendation is the Sforzat di Valtellina from the winemaker Nera Vini.
