White Wine Tre Monti Doppio Pignoletto Frizzante

Pignoletto is the name of an indigenous grape variety which produces the delicious, exclusive wine with the same name. The grape is considered "King of the Colli Bolognesi and Colli di Imola (Bologna hills) wine zone", and rightly so. Pliny the Elder, in his "Naturalis Historia", written in the 1st century AD, mentioned a wine called "Pino Lieto". Tanara, in his 1653 treatise entitled "Economia del Cittadino in Villa" (Economy of the Citizen Living in a Country Villa), made specific references to "Pignolo grapes", which were cultivated in the hills in the province of Bologna.
