“Campo della Fojada” Riserva is a Riesling Renano born from the experience of one of the historic producers of Oltrepò Pavese. The origins of Tenuta Travaglino date back to the 12th century and today it is managed by the fifth generation of the Comi family, who have been able to enhance its qualities with a range of excellent wines. The wine is the result of a selection of the best grapes from the prized Campo della Fojada vineyard, integrated with a small percentage of grapes carefully selected from other plots of the estate. The Riesling Renano vines are cultivated at an altitude of about 250-280 meters above sea level with a very sunny exposure facing south, in order to achieve excellent ripening. The vines root in predominantly limestone soils, with the presence of clays, sands, and pebbles, which make them dry and well-draining. At the end of the harvest, the best selected bunches in the vineyard undergo a cold maceration and a subsequent soft pressing to extract only the first fraction of the must. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature of 16-18 degrees. The wine ages for 12 months in steel tanks on the fine lees and one year in the bottle before being marketed.
