The Story

It was the summer of 1986 when Luigi Bersini, chef de cave at Bonomi, leaving the vineyards to go into the woods, found between ivy and selvatic shrubs some vine plants. He discovered that the woods, over the years, had taken possession of a portion of land hiding an old vineyard. The passion and love for the earth convinced the forest to retreat to allow a second life to these old vineyards. The lost vineyard, the CruPedru, gives the name to this beautiful cuvée.
