This month, the Italian Food, Wine and Travel writers are exploring a new-to-me, and lesser known region of Italy – Oltrepò Pavese. Susannah Gold, founder of Vigneto Communications is hosting this month. She is a Brand Ambassador for the Oltrepò here in the U.S., and graciously arranged samples for our group.
Oltrepò Pavese, which is sometime referred to as the “Tuscany of the North” is located in Lombardia. It’s about 40 miles south of Milan, the capital of Lombardia. It is bordered by Piemonte, Liguria and Emilia-Romagna. Its name means “beyond the River Po in the Pavia region.”
