One of the reasons Pinot Noir is world-famous is its ability to change character depending on where it grows. On the slopes of Montalto Pavese, at 400 meters altitude, the clay and limestone soils combined with cool summer nights create the perfect conditions for bubbles. This is a Metodo Classico that balances intense, ripe aromas with a vigorous, fresh structure.Made in the traditional way and aged on the lees for at least 24 months, this wine develops very fine bubbles and a sophisticated profile. On the nose, you get ripe white fruits and minerals, with a hint of pastry from the long aging. On the palate, it is fresh, balanced, and sharp—finished with very low sugar to keep the wine pure and crisp.

Pierluigi’s Note: This is the bubble I open at home to celebrate things or if I have guests. A serious bubble. Serve chilled at 8–10°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.
