More questions
The Bonarda DOC by Giorgi is a red wine that enchants wine lovers with its liveliness and depth of aromas. Hailing from the Lombardy region, specifically from the Oltrepò Pavese area, it is a wine that reflects the rich winemaking tradition of this region.
This wine is primarily produced from the Croatina grape variety, locally known as Bonarda. The vines grow in clayey and calcareous soils, which impart an earth-oriented complexity and a robust structure to the wine. The vineyards are tended with traditional methods, maintaining a close connection with the land and its unique characteristics.
Visually, Giorgi's Bonarda DOC presents an intense ruby red color, almost impenetrable, which heralds the distinctly fruity and persistent character of the wine. The nose opens with fragrances of ripe red fruits, such as blackberries and plums, mixed with spicy notes and a slightly herbaceous background.
On the palate, the wine is generous and full. The entry is soft, almost velvety, maintaining excellent balance thanks to a vibrant freshness and well-integrated tannins. The finish is long and pleasantly aromatic, with returns of fruit and spices.
Giorgi's Bonarda DOC is ideal to accompany flavorful dishes such as roasts, game, and aged cheeses. Its versatility also makes it suitable for everyday use, perfect for enriching the table with taste and Italian tradition.
This wine represents an excellent choice for those who wish to discover an authentic interpretation of the Bonarda varietal, expressed through the skilled hands and passion of the Giorgi winery. A true jewel of the Oltrepò Pavese that promises to delight the most demanding palates.

The story
The estate is led by the Bricolo family: parents Alberta and Roberto started the business, and it is now managed by their daughter Roberta. According to the winery, it was founded by the parents in 1975; in 2014 the current owners began the conversion to organic viticulture, which resulted in vineyard certification. Over the years the facilities have been expanded with architectural additions focused on hospitality and wine tourism.
Production philosophy
The company's philosophy centers on organic viticulture and sustainability: the organic approach is regarded as an indispensable choice to safeguard health and the land and to enhance the relationship between soil, vine and climate, with winemaking planned already in the vineyard.
Terroir and vineyards
The vineyards are located on the moraine hills around the village of Custoza, in the municipality of Sommacampagna, on glacially derived soils rich in pebbles and calcium carbonate, which impart minerality and salinity to the wines, typical of the Lake Garda area.
Awards and recognition
Among the recognitions reported by the press and industry platforms are: Tre Bicchieri for the Custoza 'San Michelin'; international awards such as a Silver Medal and mentions in Decanter for the Custoza Superiore 'Summa'; and Mundus Vini medals for wines such as Ca' Nova.
