A story that has distant origins

Tenuta Colombarola is an 18th century structure, initially established as a holiday home and later used for winemaking.

Today it produces wines of great value, which differ from the local offerings due to the originality of the grape varieties, all of French origin. The wonderful setting of the Piacenza hills – Loc. Trevozzo in Alta Val Tidone – surround the estate and make our production unique.

Our wines

From the vineyard to the winery.

The bunches are selected, collected and gently placed in wooden boxes to preserve intact their valuable natural characteristics. With the same care, the grapes are taken to the winery to start the crushing on the same day.

Our current production includes sparkling wines, white and red wines.

Gandinaia

Red wines

The prevalence of Syrah combined with typical local varieties gives life to a ruby red coloured wine with a floral and fruity flavour. With an excellent well-balanced structure, Gandinaia matches perfectly with first courses of the Emilian cuisine, game, red meat and aged cheese.

Pietragaia

White wines

The Marsanne and Chardonnay varieties give life to a straw yellow wine with a pleasant fruity smell. Pietragaia is beautifully combined with fish, white meat and soft cheese.

Rivabriosa

White wines

Rivabriosa originates from the local Ortrugo variety. Lively straw yellow in colour with greenish hues, it is savoury and pleasant with a tingling freshness on the tongue. Its elegant effervescence is very well matched with DOP cured meats and combines perfectly with butter and sage ravioli.

Extra Brut

Sparkling wines

The blending of the Pinot Noir and Chardonnay varieties results in our Extra Brut, a sparkling wine with an excellent consistency and an appealing acidity well balanced with the structure. It is the perfect choice for your aperitifs, but it can be savoured during the whole meal and delightfully combined with cold cuts, especially with mortadella.

Brut Rosé

Sparkling wine

The Brut Rosé sparkling wine originates from varieties of Pinot Noir entirely selected in France. Ideal for the aperitif, Brut Rosé can pleasantly accompany the whole meal.

Brut 412

Sparkling wines

Brut 412 is a sparkling wine born from the combination of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay grapes. Its good structure and well-balanced acidity create a long and sweet aftertaste. We recommend it with appetisers and snacks, but also with fish specialities and finger food.

Estate

Tenuta Colombarola is a place rich in history, which has its roots back in the 18th century. The estate building, with exposed stone walls, stands on a small hill and overlooks its 30 hectares of flourishing vineyards.

A family tradition

Planting vines of French origin was an idea put forward by Vittorio Travini in 2014, when his love for the great French wines gave life to the production of Syrah, Marsanne, Chardonnay and Pinot Noir.

The passion and love for the land, along with respect for tradition and spirit of innovation, have allowed the Travini family to continue a history of enthusiasm and initiative, resulting in the current production of excellent quality wines. We aim for our wines to become a real point of reference for the oenology of our territory and beyond.

Awards

Our wines have taken part in important international contests and received numerous prestigious awards and medals over the years.

Among the most significant ones, it is relevant to mention the medal for the best wine at the International Competition Syrah du Monde and the Grand Cordon d’Or award for professional merit and the promotion of quality products worldwide.
