Franciacorta Wine Tour: Vineyards & Lake Iseo

Franciacorta stretches across the hills between Brescia and Lake Iseo, where vineyards, historic villages and morainic soils create one of northern Italy’s most recognisable wine landscapes.

The territory is known above all for Franciacorta DOCG, produced through secondary fermentation in the bottle and long periods of ageing on the lees.

Visiting two different wineries during the same day gives you the opportunity to compare individual production philosophies, cellar styles and interpretations of the same territory.

The final stop beside Lake Iseo completes the experience by connecting the vineyards with the landscape that defines the northern edge of Franciacorta.
