In this thread, further down the page, eG member Pontormo asked for input into the discussion taking place on the Italian Forum as members tour through the regions of the country. The thread got so big that they've since decided to have a thread devoted to each region. Therefore, the link Pontormo provided will bring those who click on it only to the discussion of Piemonte and Val d'Aosta.

A new region will be added each month. For February, the choice is Lombardy. The new thread is The Cooking and Cuisine of Lombardia. Lombardy is primarily known for Franciacorta sparkling wines, Valtellina Superiore, and Sfursat. I've already made very brief comments on those DOCG wines. I'm hoping others can elaborate or provide input on the lesser-known DOC or IGT wines.
