Winery: Andrea Picchioni

The winery of Andrea Picchioni is located in Canneto Pavese, in the province of Pavia, a place that has always been famous for its strong vocation for the production of high quality red wines. The history of the company began in 1988, when Andrea Picchioni decided to recover eight hectares of old vineyards in Val Solinga, located on a hillside, which turns at noon, with slopes in some prohibitive sections. In 1995 he began his collaboration with the oenologist Giuseppe Zatti, which proved to be a precious resource in improving the quality of wines. Andrea begins his adventure with the sole objective of cultivating his vines and produces his wine with the utmost respect for the environment. In the vineyard, to irrigate its plants it uses only well water from its own wells, using only organic fertilizers and redistributing the pomace, mowing the grass leaving it on the ground and does not carry out any work to avoid erosion. The types bred are the classics of Oltrepò such as Barbera, Vespolina, Croatina and Pinot Noir that are used to produce its wines, from Bonarda to Buttafuoco passing through a wonderful rosé bubbles.
