The people of Pavia know that their city’s Covered Bridge is one of Pavia‘s most beloved symbols.
🌉This historic and mysterious bridge over the Ticino River is
- 🔗 a connection between the old town and the “Borgo Ticino” district.
- 🫶 a meeting place for groups of friends and between engaged couples
- 📸 a monument to photograph and and from which to photograph beautiful views of the river
- 🌫️ a place shrouded in ancient legend (do you know it?) … and often by a thick fog
- 🎊 an event location–outdoors but with a roof overhead–used so come rain or shine.
Wine Stories 2025
Right here, as in previous years, the“Wine Stories 2025 ” event was held in October: a tribute to the wines of the area and an opportunity for wine lovers to learn about and taste the wines of Oltrepò Pavese.
We also spent the day-a beautiful, warm fall day-at our booth, with our wines and the many visiting wine enthusiasts.
Of course, Buttafuoco Storico Vigna Rogolino-the new entry from Cantina Francesco Maggi-was there, ready to show itself visually as well, thanks to the author label-and none other than an author from Pavia,artist Stefano Bressani!



Our contributor Gianni, Marco Maggi and center Stefano Bressani.
We will also be tasting other wines from the Francesco Maggi Winery, including the latest Spumante we have made: Enigma, the second classic method in our line.
So many glasses, so many people, so many good experiences around wine.
