Winery tours: Pignoletto or Lambrusco
The typical local wine in Bologna Hills is Pignoletto, a white wine that can be still or sparkling, perfect to drink with appetizers.
The area of Colli Bolognesi has plenty of producers we can visit and have a satisfying tasting of their excellent wines and typical food.
Our tour begins at 10, departing from Bologna city center, to reach the wine-growing district of Colli Bolognesi, where the Pignoletto is the main vine.
We will visit two companies, where you can have a little wine tasting at each stage, to finish the morning in a third cellar where, in addition to the tasting of their wines, we will have a great lunch with our world famous local products.
The tour is led by an AIS sommelier and with private shuttles.
In the area of Modena, instead, we are in the realm of Lambrusco, with its three traditional varieties Sorbara, Grasparossa and Salamino. We can even find some cellars that make a local version of champagne.
