I've Been looking for Riccadonna wines. Mostly Asti Spumonte. This used to be imported a few years ago from Italy. I have been able to find it lately and wondered if it is still available in the USA? Anyone with info. Please help!!!!

Riccadonna has become part of the Campari empire. So, your local wine merchant should be able to get it from the distributor who handles the Campari line.

I know it became part of Campari, and some of the wines are still labelled Riccadonna, but no one can tell me if the asti is still Riccadonna or is it Campari. No one in my area seems to know. I've been to many places in N.Y., Pa. and N.J.. I would also be interested in finding out if there are any old bottles left if there aren't new ones. Thank You for your help. If you can help me further I'd appreciate it. Or if anyone else could.

The simplist way is to spring for a bottle of the Campari, open the sucker, have a swig and find out if it`s the asti of your quest. Winoweenie
