Triacca — Tenuta La Gatta

A Swiss-Italian family from just over the border, making Valtellina wine since 1897. Tenuta La Gatta is a former 16th-century Dominican convent in Bianzone, ringed by terraced vines, where you can do a guided tour and tasting, a lunch of pizzoccheri, or a picnic in the vineyard. Sforzato — the region's dried-grape Nebbiolo — is always in the line-up.
