Bondola
Ticino DOC
2022
A Slowfood presidium since 2023, this indigenous Ticino grape variety is at the centre of a cultural movement of rediscovery. Our expression involves ageing in terracotta amphorae for one year, consistent with the Spartan character of a grape that inhabits more sandy and humble soils.
Important: while stocks last, bottles may differ from the displayed image and have the historical Terreni alla Maggia label
