ORIGINS

Winery: Cà dei Frati

Region: Lombardy

Lombardy is a region in the north of Italy, located in the foothills of the Alps. With a long history of winemaking, Lombardy is one of the most prolific wine regions in Italy, producing a wide range of styles from sparkling to still wines. The history of winemaking in Lombardy dates back to the Roman Empire, when the region was known as Cisalpine Gaul. During this period, the Romans planted vineyards and developed winemaking techniques that are still used today. In the Middle Ages, Lombardy was an important center of winemaking, with many monasteries producing wine for religious ceremonies. In the 19th century, Lombardy was one of the first regions in Italy to embrace modern winemaking techniques, such as the use of oak barrels and the introduction of new grape varieties.
