Lugana and beyond: From the red cross to the winery
We are in an area very crowded with tourism, where everyone considers only the portion of their interest, be it history, climate, or wine.
In this walking tour, we try to embrace the totality of these resources until we sublimate it through tasting because a territory is much more than the sum of its components.
Are you interested in history? Or do you love the Mediterranean climate with the Alps as a backdrop? And you also appreciate wines. This experience neglects nothing, and the participant is the absolute protagonist.
On foot, we walk the route from the Red Cross Memorial in Solferino to the winery in Lugana.
A whole tasting, to go beyond the “borders” and enjoy together the resources of the place, remembering the tremendous human talents who wrote its history.
