Torrazzetta, since 1984, is entirely organic, the 1st Winery in Oltrepò Pavese. Actually, "Organic" is now a bit tight for us, our wines can now be defined as Natural, to guarantee even healthier wines, while safeguarding the territory, the environment and the health of our customers.
We are a member of the Italian Federation of Independent Vinegrowers, an association that brings together all those small and medium producers who are involved in the production of wine from A (care of the vineyard, cultivation, harvesting) to Z (winemaking and marketing).
We are in the biggest wine region of Lombardy, Oltrepò Pavese, located in the province of Pavia, about one hour south of Milan. All our vineyards are situated in the municipality of Borgo Priolo, one part in Pavarolo, the other in Torrazzetta, where the main body of the farm and the wine-making cellar are located.
