L'Aquiletta In Breno

09/12/2024: Thanks to one of the owners of this lovely agritourismo near Brescia, I got the awesome opportunity to visit them in April 2024. Chiara gave me an excellent tour of Al Rocol’s wine cellars and gave me an educational insight into the making of Franciacorta sparkling wines. What a labour of love this tasty product is! After the tour, I got to taste their wonderful wines along with a sumptuous plate of delicacies. The homemade bread, the refreshingly smooth olive oil, the dessert, the cheese … everything was top-notch. Francesca, the owner, made sure that everything I was served was vegetarian as per my dietary preference. What an excellent place operated by equally good people! The wines I bought from their vinothek were a great value and even greater taste. I wish I had stayed longer, rented a room in their lodgings and enjoyed their hospitality over a few days. Next time I am in the region, I hope to be able to do so.
