Casteggio (PV)
Frecciarossa has shared a bit of the Italian history of the last hundred years: the company was in fact founded in 1919 by Mario Odero, a Genoese active in the cement and coal business, who had bought the villa in Casteggio from the engineer Valsecchi who had designed the Turin-Piacenza railway in 1870 and had fallen in love with the hills of Oltrepò. Alongside Mario came his son Giorgio, who graduated in agriculture in Milan and, after a good apprenticeship in France, took over the family business, bringing wines to tables all over the world. The first bottles went on sale in 1924, and by February 1934 they were already being exported to the United States, helping to make Italian wines known. Margherita Odero joined her father after graduating as an agronomist in 1963, one of the first women in Italy, and turned the company around in 2000 with the help of first Giancarlo and then Gianluca Scaglione. In 2011, Valeria Radici, her daughter, joined her in Casteggio and from there they completed the relaunch of one of the wineries that has most made history in the Oltrepò, certifying all production as organic since 2017 and working on the finesse of grape varieties such as Pinot Noir.
