A deliberate selection: only 594 bottles were produced. While Pinot Nero from Oltrepò Pavese is often destined for sparkling wine, Amadi is a serious red. This Riserva comes from a single plot of 40-year-old vines at 400 meters altitude. Low yields, 12 months in French oak barrels, and another year in the bottle give this wine its presence and structure. This is Pinot Nero built to age.The altitude and cool nights make for a wine that is both intense and refined. You’ll find ripe red berries, wild flowers, and a hint of spice on the nose. On the palate, it has a generous structure with firm, characteristic tannins polished by the wood. It’s a rich, garnet-red wine with a finish that lingers.

Pierluigi’s Note: This is the bottle I open when I want a wine with real character. It’s powerful enough for roasted or grilled meats and hearty winter stews, but it also works brilliantly with aged, salty cheeses. It has a long life ahead of it—easily 10 to 12 years—so if you open it now, give it the time it needs. Serve at 18°C.

Le Fiole is the story of two sisters, Silvia and Elisa, who chose to reconnect with their roots in Oltrepò Pavese. Their grandfather Guglielmo and father Enzo both dedicated their lives to the vines, growing grapes with love and patience on the rolling hills of Montalto Pavese.

The spark came one summer day in 2016, when Silvia and Elisa discovered an old chest in their grandfather’s farmhouse. Inside were bottles of wine carefully kept from the years of their births — a sign of the deep bond between family, land, and wine. From that moment, they knew they wanted to continue this tradition in their own way.

Today, they call themselves the female side of Oltrepò Pavese. With their Pinot Noir and Pinot Grigio, they aim to elevate local grapes with elegance and personality, blending family heritage with a modern vision. Every bottle of Le Fiole is both a tribute to their roots and an invitation to experience the unique character of Oltrepò Pavese.

Oltrepò Pavese is one of Italy’s best-kept secrets. Tucked away in the hills south of Milan, it’s a landscape of rolling vineyards, tiny villages, and winding valleys. This is Pinot Noir country — in fact, the area sits on the same latitude as Burgundy and Oregon, two of the world’s most famous Pinot regions.

Here, the days are warm, the nights are cool, and the soils are a mix of limestone and clay. That combination gives the wines freshness, elegance, and depth — exactly what Pinot Noir needs to shine. It’s no wonder Oltrepò is often called the “Burgundy of Italy.”

Despite its history and potential, the region is still under the radar. And that’s the beauty of it: you’ll find authentic wines full of character, without the hype. A place where Pinot Noir finds a true Italian voice.
