San Colombano al Lambro

Wine · PDO · 5 municipalities

San Colombano al Lambro DOC, recognized since 1999, is sustained by just 8 verified producers across five Lombardy municipalities, including Graffignana and Miradolo Terme. This tiny denomination distinguishes itself through a specific red blend requiring a minimum of 30% Croatina and 25% Barbera, yielding wines that range from dry to slightly sweet (abboccato), which can also be produced as frizzante. While base wines have no mandatory aging, single-vineyard vigna designations enforce stricter rules, requiring three months of bottle aging before release, while the vigna Riserva demands 24 months of aging, with 12 months in wood.
