Franciacorta Wine Tour

LUXURY WINE COUNTRY TOURS FRANCIACORTA

 

The picturesque wine region of Franciacorta is a relative secret, virtually untouched by non-Italian tourists. It is a fantastic destination for a luxurious short break. Located a little over an hour from Milan, Franciacorta is famed for its bubbly, and the wines are considered to be on a par with the finest champagnes. The region is full of picturesque vineyards on rolling hills and medieval villages. Located in Lombardy, a wealthy region synonymous with gourmet cuisine, celebrity chefs and Michelin starred “ristoranti”, food and wine are the protagonists on this tour. Activities you can look forward to include wine tasting, spa time (your Relais & Chateaux hotel has an outstanding spa), a private boat on Lake Iseo, a tour of wonderful and little explored Bergamo and a guided walking tour of Milan. If you love food, wine and culture and are looking for a short break in Italy, contact us for more information on this sample tour.
