Lombardy is the most populous, richest and most productive region in the country. 16.2% of the national population (10 million people) live there and create 21% of the total GDP.
The region is an important producer of wines but not really well recognized except Franciacorta or Valtellina.
If Italy is known for its spaghettis, Rice is very popular in the region, often found in soups as well as risotti, such as “risotto alla milanese”, with saffron. Butter is used, no olive oil!
The region is famous for its historical figures such as Virgil, Caravaggio, Claudio Monteverdi, Antonio Stradivari and popes John XXIII or Paul VI.
Arpepe
The “Pelizzatti” winery was born in 1860.
In 1973, after many trials and tribulations, both the trademark and the business were sold.
In 1984, Arturo Pelizzatti Perego, decided to make a comeback, using his own acronym, ArPePe.
Now, the family owns 13 hectares of vineyard. They are all standing in grass, in the heart of the Valtellina Superiore DOCG area, dotted around Sassella, Grumello and Inferno.
In 2018, Gambero Rosso awarded Best Italian Red Wine of the Year ARPEPE’s Sassella Riserva Rocce Rosse.
