When you decide to go to winery Oltrepò essential step is to Bosnasco Tenuta Scarpa Colombi.
Roberto and Maria Teresa by real owners who always make you feel better and provide the best customer, and then let us not forget, ultimately sealing in Lombardy as this you do not see anymore.
In fact, the "palace" Scarpa Colombi was built towards the end of 1600 on the ruins of an ancient castle, and now thanks to a careful renovation, personally managed by the joint owners, is one of the jewels Oltrepò. The inner courtyard is a beautiful expression of the late eighteenth century Italian architecture with columns of granite and brick vaults. The large tasting room, renowned for its barrels robere, we welcome visitors in a charming, rich in history and tradition. The wines in the cellar and enclosed in barrels ranging from traditional red (Barbera, Bonarda, Pinot Nero, Blood of Judas) to white (Pinot Noir vinified as white, Pinot Grigio, Pinot Noir Brut, Moscato) sought for special Chardonnay and Rosé, Cruas , Blanc de Blanc, without forgetting that Maria Teresa and Roberto also have an estate in Piedmont, and then for people who want more of the grapes Oltrepò you can enjoy an excellent Barbera d'Asti or the unmatched Passito Moscato di Piemonte .
If you decide to go on a Sunday for a ride out of town in search of old traditions Scarpa Colombi Palace also houses a fantastic restaurant with typical Pavia and Piacenza .... do not forget "LA Buta" and in this case, Charles and his staff will immediately make you feel among friends.
