Itinerary
• Milan
• Erbusco (3h)
Daytrip helps you explore this medieval town in the best possible way. First you pass through amazing views of Lake Iseo on the way, then you arrive in the land of fantastic wine. Start with visiting the Town Hall to appreciate its Art Nouveau style, then dive right into wine tasting in a family-run vineyard and superlative lunch!
• Monastery of San Pietro in Lamosa (45m)
• Take a historical pause to your wine expedition at this monastery that’s been standing strong since 1083.
Let your driver take you to the calm town of Provaglio d’Iseo right beside Lake Iseo and to absorb how Romanesque and Gothic styles come together beautifully in the Monastery of San Pietro in Lamosa.
Don’t forget to go inside to check the frescoes which tell tales of medieval devotion!
• La Gatta Estate (2h)
• You’ve tried the delicious Franciacotta wine, now it’s time to try the Valtellina one! And La Gatta Estate is simply the best place to do so!
Their philosophy is this: “From my vineyard for your pleasure and taste” and they base their success on family and on the love for the land. To summarize it, you’ll sample Valtellina wine in the most authentic way there is.
They offer free visits so no need to book before!
So sip your wine against the mountain views and layers of vineyards slowly, before you set off to Milan!
