Abstract
The aim of this paper is to show the reasons for the decline and subsequent rebirth of the Sfurzat in Valtellina (a Lombard Alpine Valley). This is a high quality, Italian, nebbiolo sweet wine which was mainly sold on the German markets until the early 19th century. The paper illustrates the different reasons for the progressive decline, which started in the 19th century, until its virtual disappearance, during the first half the 20th century.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
