The last lesson is dedicated to a visit to the winery in the 18th-century Pagnoncelli Folcieri villa in Scanzorosciate in the province of Bergamo. Moscato di Scanzo is a rare and precious red raisin wine from Lombardy that I am sure you will fall in love with... just as my husband and I did when we went there for the first time. Francesca Pagnoncelli will show us the entire production process of Moscato di Scanzo DOCG and give us a tour of the splendid frescoed rooms of the villa. You can already get a glimpse of the experience we will have together by reading this article.
