Italy, Lombardy – Franciacorta Bubbles & Relais

Winery Visit & Gourmet Dinner

Your Franciacorta journey begins this morning, with a guided cellar and vineyard tour. Your guide will introduce you to the Franciacorta growing area, explaining the biodiversity in the vineyard, then following with the Franciacorta production method.

Finally comes the best part where you are able to enjoy tasting of various Franciacorta wines. Each of which eloquently reflects the particular qualities of the soils, quality potential, elevation, exposure, and microclimate classic to its own vineyard.

You will then be welcomed back to your Relais di Charme, for a relaxing afternoon.

Later, an exceptional nearby restaurant will receive you for dinner, where a spectacular gourmet meal and Franciacorta wines await.

Nature Walk, Massage & Relais Dinner

Your day begins with breakfast in your Relais. In the morning, a guide with intimate knowledge of our beautiful surrounding hills will accompany you for a two hour nature walk amidst Franciacorta’s scenic treasures.

Enveloped by vine-carpeted hills and the fish-rich ponds of the famed Sebino Nature Preserve, you will revel in intimate contact with nature, with its scents, colours and sounds.

In the afternoon, leave all worries behind as you enjoy an energising massage at your Relais’ spa. Spend the entire afternoon there if you wish, as spa access is included along with your massage.

The day only gets better as you celebrate the evening with traditional local cuisine in your hotel’s restaurant.
