Lombardia
Although Lombardy is developing a reputation for its sparkling wines from Franciacorta and Oltrepò Pavese, the wine industry has less importance here than the region’s other industries. That is not to say that the local population do not enjoy wine – far from it. Lombardy’s wines are reaching the peak of success of those of their neighbours in Piedmont, Emilia-Romagna and Veneto, there is a growing interest in their eclectic wines abroad, and with the quality of Franciacorta DOCG sparkling wines improving constantly it is likely the wines of Lombardy will gain more presence on the international market in the future.
