La Travaglina

OLTREPÒ PAVESE – Via Cascina Travaglina, 1 – Santa Giuletta (PV)  •

 

 

 

Oltrepò Pavese: this is the name of the land on which our company stands, from which our wines are born, on which we have built our family history.
There has been talk of this area in the province of Pavia since Etruscan times which probably introduced the cultivation of vines.
Time has passed and today Oltrepò Pavese is the third Italian wine production area, excelling in the Pinot Noir and Croatina typologies. Our company is located on the first hilly area, in Santa Giuletta, where the land is cultivated in order to produce structured autochthonous red wines and elegant sapid and mineral white wines.

After researches to find the best “cru” among our 30,5 ha land we discovered we can produce wine by vinificating single vineyards such as Casaia, Zavola and Vigna delle Rocche.
As in a family, everyone in the winery also has a well-defined role. Elisabetta Dacarro takes care of the agronomic and administrative aspects in support of her brother Stefano, passionate winemaker of La Travaglina, while Stefano Bottiroli, husband of Elisabetta, is the commercial soul. Together with Federico, fourth generation and young oenologist, they represent the faces behind the production of Travaglina farmhouse wine.

HIS MAJESTY THE PINOT NOIR – € 35pp

• We will return to the room where you can taste four different vinifications of Pinot Noir (two Classic Methods DOCG and two vinified in red), a very difficult grape variety both in the vineyard and in the cellar, but very versatile, which in Oltrepò has found the ideal soil and climate to release all its elegance, both sparkling and vinified in red.
• The wines will be paired with four tastings of local cured meats and cheeses, accompanied by slices of Miccone di Stradella, the local bread.
