Wine experience at Il Dosso Winery in Franciacorta
Here is what's in store for you
Please note: this tasting experience is not available during the Franciacorta Festival on September 18, 19 and 20, 2026.
We invite you to explore our special Festival experiences, created exclusively for this event.
Visit Il Dosso Winery, located in the heart of Franciacorta, and enjoy a journey through 3 creations of Casa Archetti. Il Dosso is a small family estate in Borgonato di Corte Franca, working around six hectares in the Franciacorta hills between Brescia and Lake Iseo. Luca founded it in 1997 to keep a promise to his father Augusto and carry on five generations of growers
This wine tasting experience offers a unique opportunity to discover the production process behind the renowned Franciacorta wines and to immerse yourself in the rolling hills of the Brescia area, just a short distance from Lake Iseo.
The guided tasting is led by the producer and shaped around you. Rather than a fixed flight, Luca, Matteo or Michela, pick three wines on the day from the estate's three worlds: the Franciacorta DOCG, the VSQ sparkling wines, and reds. A board of local cured meats and cheeses can be added to combine their wine with Franciacorta salumi and cheeses chosen by the team. Water and artisanal taralli come with every tasting, and a gluten-free option can be arranged if you mention it when booking.
The experience continues with a guided visit to the cellar, where you will learn about the production techniques and daily work behind each bottle.
Il Dosso is a family-run winery, where tradition, passion, and respect for the territory come together. During the visit and tasting, you will discover our story, our winemaking philosophy, and enjoy our wines in a simple, authentic, and welcoming environment.
The winery is not designed as a scenic or show space, but as a place of work, passion, and everyday life. If you are looking for a genuine experience, we will be happy to welcome you and share the philosophy that guides our production.
