About Lombardy
Glamour and opulence are synonymous with Lombardy. Whether that’s the grandiose villas that line Lake Garda and Lake Como, the capital of haute couture fashion Milan, or its illustrious arts and literary heritage. The region is a crossroads of tradition and modernity, its skyline is a fascinating blend of old and new. The cuisine is equally rich, with expensive spices, prime cuts of meat and aged cheeses bringing flair to risotto and polenta-based dishes. The cooling influence of The Alps makes it a sparkling wine haven. Franciacorta, along Lake Iseo, is one of the premier metodo classico wines from Italy made from chardonnay, pinot bianco and pinot nero. For red wines, chiavennasca (nebbiolo) is the main hero. Don’t miss the little wine region of Oltrepo’ Pavese, ready to surprise you. Other varieties include barbera, croatina and pinot nero.
