The series opens Sunday, April 2nd, by visiting a historic, typical Oltrepò Pavese wine produce, Enzo Padroggi from Azienda Agricola Cà del Gè.
Getting to know Enzo means getting an understanding of this wine producing area's history. In fact, Padroggi is a man who has dedicate all of his life to the vineyard and the cellar, forgoing holidays and daringly caring for the grapes in the field and the grape juice in at the winery. Lovingly, he oversees the maturation of the precious juice, from crushing to bottling great wines, which can be either young, lively and ready to be drunk, or else aged and complex, perflect to pair with reflective moments.
The series 'Incontri d'Autore con il Produttore' will continue every Sunday throughout May 14, 2006.
