Franciacorta is situated in the North of Italy not far from Brescia and Lake Iseo. The slogan of the region’s wine producers is: “Franciacorta: Soul satisfying effervescence”, referring to the white sparkling wine that is sometimes compared to champagne because it is made using the champenoise production method. However, Franciacorta is more than just wine.. it also means art, handicrafts and, above all, good food!!

Lison-Pramaggiore Wine Route snakes along the easternmost area of the Veneto region through Annone Veneto, Portogruaro, San Stino di Livenza and Pramaggiore, up to the beaches of Bibione and the lagoon of Caorle. Here history can be felt everywhere along the old Roman roads that criss-cross the vineyards and uncultivated land.
