description
This Lambrusco Provincia di Mantova reveals its softer trait with Il Salico, pinkish-coloured and with a lighter texture, ideal for summertime and enjoyable with light dishes. The name of this wine is a tribute to our land’s history and, more specifically, to emperor Conrad II “Il Salico”, hosted in Viadana in 1038, who proclaimed a law about hereditability of nobiliary feudal contracts.
