The 2011 Sangue di Giuda Oltrepò Pavese Bronis is a sweet sparkling red wine holding a Denominazione di Origine Controllata (DOC) classification. Produced by Bronis and bottled at the origin by the Cantina Sociale Intercomunale di Broni, this wine represents the traditional winemaking practices of its local area.The wine originates from Oltrepò Pavese, situated in southern Lombardy just south of the Po River. Lombardy is a region characterized by an incredible geographical span, ranging from dramatic mountains in the north to foggy plains in the south. While the region is widely recognized for extremes such as Franciacorta and the steep alpine terraces of Valtellina, Oltrepò Pavese remains one of its most significant wine-producing areas. The area is highly regarded for its classic method sparkling wines as well as local specialties.This specific cuvée is crafted from a blend of 60% Croatina, 30% Barbera, and 10% Uva Rara. Croatina is a blue grape primarily cultivated in northern Italy, with historical records tracing its local cultivation back to the Middle Ages. Originally believed to stem from Croatia, it gained widespread popularity in the 19th century due to its resistance to mildew. It is characterized by late ripening and high yields.Uva Rara, despite its name translating directly to "rare grape," is relatively common in Lombardy and Piedmont. The name refers instead to the vine's loose and open clusters. It is a vigorous, mid-to-late ripening variety that thrives in clay soils and offers good resistance to rot. Together with the classic Italian Barbera grape, these varieties are traditionally blended to form the structural foundation of this regional specialty.

About the region

Lombardy is Italy's economic engine room, but in terms of wine it is a region with an incredibly wide range - from the dramatic mountains in the north to the misty plains in the south.

The region is particularly famous for two extremes: Franciacorta, which is Italy's answer to Champagne (made in the classic method), and Valtellina in the Alps, where the Nebbiolo grape is grown on dizzyingly steep terraces under the name Chiavennasca.

Super service and very helpful. Lost one of the bottles during transport and reported it to Bottles With History. It was fixed immediately and a new bottle was sent immediately. (Actually a better wine in my opinion) It is very difficult to guarantee that older bottles are drinkable, like the Barolo from 69 I tried. Anders came to the rescue again and of course sent a new bottle of the same caliber. Thank you very much for the good service, can definitely recommend shopping here in safe hands.
