Tenute Frecciarossa

Tenuta Frecciarossa has just 20ha of vineyard within the ‘Oltrepo Pavese’ zone of Lombardy. These are wonderful food wines, almost exclusively enjoyed at the fashionable bars and restaurants of Milan.

 

The zesty, dry Riesling has a bouquet of apricot and peach, whilst the red ‘Praielle’ blend of Barbera, Bonarda and Uva Rara is packed with red berry fruit softened by barrel age.

 

The elegant dry ‘Sillery’ is an extraordinary Pinot Nero vinified as a white wine, and the barrique aged Pinot Nero was awarded as best Italian Pinot Nero by Gambero Rosso.
