A Lombardy wine case is six bottles from one estate, never assembled from several producers. The wines are chosen by the winery or by one of our wine experts, and the case is shipped directly from the winery. Lombardy is a region of contrasts — sparkling Franciacorta in the south, still whites along the Lugana shore, reds from the Valtellina's alpine terraces — and a case from a single producer is a short, guided way to trace how one cellar reads the part of the region it calls home. On Free Grape Society, producers ship directly from their own cellar, with no importer or warehouse in between.

Lombardy also produces still wines across a wide range of styles and grapes, from the Nebbiolo-based reds of Valtellina to crisp Trebbiano di Lugana whites grown on the southern shores of Lake Garda. The individual bottles listed here come from growers working their own vineyards, and reflect the breadth of what the region grows beyond its sparkling reputation.

The producers offering cases here work across Lombardy's varied sub-regions — some on the morainic soils left by retreating glaciers around Garda, others on the chalk and clay that define Franciacorta's character. Free Grape Society is a society of producers, independent experts and wine lovers, not a shop, and the growers you find here set their own prices and ship what they make themselves.

Every case is six bottles from one producer. The wines are chosen by the winery or by one of our wine experts, and the case is shipped directly from the winery. The exact wines vary by producer and may span different appellations, grapes or styles depending on what the estate makes. The contents are listed on the case page before you order.
Average delivery is 8 to 9 days from order to door. The full range is 4 to 14 days depending on the producer's location and your delivery address. Wines ship directly from the producer's cellar, not from a central warehouse.
Start with the sub-region or style that interests you — a Franciacorta producer if you want sparkling, a Lugana or Garda estate for whites, a Valtellina grower if you prefer structured reds. Each producer's page describes how they farm and what the six bottles cover, which makes it straightforward to match a case to what you enjoy.
Yes. Each case page lists the individual wines included and a short description from the producer. Where independent wine experts have reviewed bottles in the case, those notes are also visible, so you can read honest assessments alongside the grower's own description before committing.
The wine experts listed on this page specialise in Italian wines and have personal tasting experience across Lombardy's appellations. Fill in the contact form on an expert's profile page and they will get back to you with a recommendation based on what you enjoy and what you are looking for.
Because a case from one grower is a focused introduction, not a sampler. The six bottles say something coherent about one producer's range: their sub-region, their grapes, their approach in the cellar. Mixing wines from several estates would remove that focus and make the case a generic selection rather than a portrait of one grower.
Free Grape Society works differently from a traditional wine merchant or importer. There is no warehouse buying in bulk and marking up the price — each producer lists their own wines and ships directly to you. That means a closer relationship with the grower and a price that reflects the wine rather than the distribution chain.
A Lombardy wine case from Free Grape Society is always six bottles from one producer, with at least two different wines. That matters in a region this internally varied. Six bottles from a producer based in Franciacorta and working with Chardonnay and Pinot Nero will look fundamentally different from those of one farming Nebbiolo on the slopes above Lake Como in Valtellina, or a grower making Lugana from Turbiana on the southern shore of Lake Garda. Reading what a case includes (which wines, which vintages, how much breadth versus depth) tells you a great deal about the estate and its range. The cases listed here come from producers who ship directly from their own cellars, with no importer or warehouse in between.

Lombardy covers more ground than its most famous names suggest. Franciacorta, in the province of Brescia, built its reputation on metodo classico sparkling wines — Chardonnay, Pinot Nero and Pinot Bianco fermented and aged on lees in the bottle, in the same way Champagne is made. Further north, Valtellina produces some of Italy's most age-worthy reds from Nebbiolo grown on steep, terraced granite slopes at altitude — a physically demanding place to farm, which is reflected in the wines' structure and longevity. On the western shore of Lake Garda, the Lugana DOC focuses almost entirely on Turbiana, a local white grape that produces wines ranging from lean and mineral to rich and textured depending on the producer's approach. These are three distinct corners of one region, each with its own grape logic and growing conditions. Producers from all three appear among the Lombardy wineries on Free Grape Society, alongside growers from Oltrepò Pavese, where Pinot Nero has been farmed since the nineteenth century. You can also explore the broader range of Italian wines or Italian wine cases across all regions.
If you already have a sense of where in Lombardy you want to go — Franciacorta bubbles, a structured Valtellina red, a precise Lugana white — the producer's case is a way to go deeper into that grower's range across six bottles rather than picking individual wines one at a time. If you are less familiar with the region, a case is a short guided introduction: you follow six bottles from one producer through their estate, which gives you a more coherent picture than six unrelated bottles from six different places would. Either way, the six bottles stay with one producer, so you are tasting a single cellar's point of view rather than a sampled cross-section. For a broader sense of what Lombardy's independent growers make bottle by bottle, the Lombardy wines listing is the place to start. If you want to compare how different Italian regions approach the case format, the full Italy wine cases page covers producers from Sicily to Friuli Venezia Giulia.
