Tenuta Il Bosco is based at Zenevredo in the Pavia area of the region of Lombardia in northern Italy. The estate extends over 152 hectares and vines were cultivated here by Benedictine monks back in the Middle Ages, who saved the area from some neglect.

Focus is on traditional grape varieties of the area, such as Bonarda and Barbera, but this soil is also producing some interesting wines from the Pinot Nero grape - both as still reds and sparkling whites and roses. For nearly a quarter of a century, the Zonin family has owned this estate.
