Thirty years wasted \u2014 <strong>from 1996 to 2026<\/strong> \u2014 without managing to build <strong>a precise, clear, and distinct identity<\/strong> around what is one of the most fascinating and historically rich wines of <strong>Oltrep\u00f2 Pavese<\/strong>. Thirty years in the shadow of nothingness, or close to it. Indeed, it is not enough to simply rename things \u2014 as seen with the recent <em>urbi et orbi<\/em> launch of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.winemag.it\/en\/in-pinot-nero-we-trust-oltrepo-bets-big-on-classese\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">consortium brand &#8220;Classese&#8221;<\/a> \u2014 to say with certainty that the territory has finally turned a corner and taken a common direction dictated by history. Oltrep\u00f2 was, remains, and will continue to be for years a gamble \u2014 if not a risk \u2014 among Italian wine and sparkling wine regions. It will remain so <strong>until the numbers are on the side of the Consortium<\/strong> led (with stubbornness, but perhaps a bit of tunnel vision) by president Francesca Seralvo and director Riccardo Binda.     <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Not the number of hectares of Pinot Noir<\/strong> in the territory, boastfully flaunted by the Torrazza Coste body thanks to a copy-paste from Sole 24 Ore. But when <strong>the number of bottles of Metodo Classico claimed as Docg<\/strong> finally manages to grow and reach critical mass (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.winemag.it\/en\/alta-langa-docg-2025-3-5-million-bottles-sales-exceed-2-million-10\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Alta Langa docet<\/a>). Swallowing up (and replacing) the widespread <strong>VSQ Pinot Noir-based<\/strong> sparkling wines, which constitute the real handbrake on the rise, consecration, and positioning of the Oltrep\u00f2 <em>champenoise<\/em> with a controlled and guaranteed designation of origin. A sort of &#8220;internal competition&#8221; between producers of the same area. It remains baffling.    <\/p>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-uagb-advanced-heading uagb-block-5d2040d9\"><h5 class=\"uagb-heading-text\"><strong>BUTTAFUOCO STORICO DELL&#8217;OLTREP\u00d2: NO FUTURE WITHOUT A PRESENT<\/strong><\/h5><\/div>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThe Club del Buttafuoco Storico turns 30. A pact that speaks more and more of the future,\u201d reads the headline of the press release issued yesterday by the excellent communication agency Wildfoxa. But <strong>what future can we talk about without a present?<\/strong> The truth is that Buttafuoco Storico, fundamentally, does not exist (yet). It does not exist (yet) because of the thirty-year manifest inability of the Oltrep\u00f2 wine leadership to give <strong>true prestige to an extraordinary and unique gem<\/strong>.  <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A wine intrinsically and uniquely distinctive of Oltrep\u00f2 Pavese, obtained from a blend of &#8220;indigenous&#8221; grapes of the area: <strong>Croatina, Barbera, Uva Rara, and Ughetta di Canneto<\/strong>. <strong>So much for the Pinot Noir bubbles<\/strong> with which one can \u2014 mostly \u2014 engage in a <strong>price war<\/strong> against Champagne, Franciacorta, Trento Doc, and Alta Langa. A Piedmontese denomination, the latter, which in a few years has signaled and is overtaking many at career speed. With a middle finger out the window.  <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Buttafuoco Storico turns 30 in the <strong>comical chaos of the &#8220;midday risotto feast&#8221;<\/strong> with which the producers of the Club del Buttafuoco Storico will celebrate, on Sunday, February 8, 2026, these thirty years of substantial darkness of ideas and inability to establish the quality and positioning of this wine <strong>among the great Italian reds (because that is what we are talking about)<\/strong>. It doesn&#8217;t matter that the bottles of Buttafuoco Storico have &#8220;grown progressively from a tiny niche production to reach <strong>70,000 units<\/strong>.&#8221; <\/p>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-uagb-advanced-heading uagb-block-21472b87\"><h5 class=\"uagb-heading-text\">30 YEARS OF <strong>FAIRY TALES. AL DENTE<\/strong><\/h5><\/div>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And it is certainly not enough to tell the fairy tale \u2014 at least as ironic as the &#8220;midday risotto feast&#8221; sealing the 30th-anniversary celebrations \u2014 that &#8220;Buttafuoco Storico is today a wine <strong>whose value is on the same level as Oltrep\u00f2 Pavese Metodo Classico<\/strong>. Establishing itself as one of the reference labels of the territory.&#8221; <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Because there is nothing &#8220;established,&#8221; except for the fact that promoting this wine (at a local level, another contradiction) is a &#8220;Club&#8221; of producers instead of a Consortium. A Club that spent just under <strong>500,000 euros<\/strong> to create the <strong>Enoteca del Buttafuoco Storico<\/strong> in <strong>Canneto Pavese<\/strong>, intended as a &#8220;physical and symbolic garrison for the wine and for the production area.&#8221; Meanwhile, in supermarkets, cheap bottles circulate (some even good) that have nothing &#8220;historic&#8221; about them. But they carry the same name, &#8220;Buttafuoco.&#8221; And they have &#8220;bubbles&#8221; (now that is the famous style!).    <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWhat <strong>thirty years ago might have seemed like a gamble<\/strong> by a group of dreamers, especially in an Oltrep\u00f2 Pavese then more oriented towards volumes and intensive viticulture \u2014 comments the president of the Club del Buttafuoco Storico, Massimo Piovani \u2014 today appears to be <strong>the only possible way to protect the viticultural heritage<\/strong>. And to carry the winemaker&#8217;s craft into the future. The forward-looking vision of the founders demonstrates the value of a serious project, born with a simple but no longer negotiable goal. To preserve the vineyard. To safeguard the historicity of the vines. And to defend, year after year, the quality of the grapes.\u201d <strong>All very beautiful<\/strong>. As long as the risotto, on Sunday, February 8, 2026, is al dente.      <\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-wp-embed is-provider-winemag-it-davide-bortone-wine-magazine-italiano-guida-vini-wine-news wp-block-embed-winemag-it-davide-bortone-wine-magazine-italiano-guida-vini-wine-news\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"wp-embedded-content\" data-secret=\"ttOXY3YRZy\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.winemag.it\/vigne-eroiche-buttafuoco-storico-oltrepo-pavese-bordeaux-pendenze-basse-rese\/\">Le vigne eroiche del Buttafuoco storico, tra pendenze e basse rese.
