Terre di Colleoni (Colleoni) DOC
Come si dice? Tap the speaker next to a name to hear it in Italian. AI voice.
No strip issued. I'm still hunting a bottle.
A newer Bergamo DOC named after the 15th-century condottiero, created to give varietal labels to wines that didn't fit the Valcalepio blend rules. Whites from Chardonnay, Pinot Bianco and Incrocio Manzoni are light, crisp and apple-scented; the reds from Merlot, Cabernet and the local Franconia (Blaufränkisch) are medium-bodied, with cherry, blackcurrant and peppery tannin. Some producers also make Charmat and traditional-method sparkling under the name. Volumes are tiny and largely consumed around Bergamo.
