Summary

Exclusive historical traditional term connected to a wine typology produced in the Oltrepò Pavese territory. It has been used for a long time to designate a very distinguishing red-coloured product, sweet, sparkling or exuberant, palatable, i.e. it is so mellow indeed that the more you drink the more it can cheat you, as the famous apostle!!
