Producer
The Torti winery was established in 1910 by Giovanni Torti. Succeeding generations have been heavily involved in winemaking and the winery today is operated by Dino Torti. Taking pride in their expansive vineyards, the winery has had particular success with Pinot Nero and especially indigenous grape varietals which thrive in the Lombardy region.
Winemaking
Grapes are hand harvested at optimum ripeness from selected Torti vineyards on the best hillsides in the area, known for producing top quality fruit. Traditional winemaking techniques ensure the true essence of the fruit is enhanced with the appropriate use of yeasts and timely maturation
Fun Fact
Situated in the Provincia di Pavia area of Lombardy, the Otrepo Pavese location is the most northerly wine region in Italy. Its town of Pavia (Pavese in Italian) is just 45 kms south of Milan. It is bordered by the regions of Emilia-Romagna and Piedmont. Amazingly, the area is “shaped like a bunch of grapes”, and is located exactly half way between the North Pole and the Equator, on the 45th parallel like Bordeaux in France.
Food pairing
A tasty white wine ideal as an aperitif. It partners well with light dishes especially Italian antipasto and pasta with white sauces. Lightly cooked fish dishes and poultry also work well.
