September marks the beginning of the grape harvest in the nearby winelands of Valtellina, with no better time to sample the very best of the year’s crop.

This season, guests of Hilton Lake Como can embark on a sensory vineyard voyage of their own that blends nature, craftsmanship and relaxation with an exclusive private vineyard tour and tasting journey.

Arranged by the expert concierge team, guests will enjoy a private transfer followed by a guided tour of the centuries-old vineyards at their most vibrant. As the busy harvest season gets underway, they will marvel at the grape pickers and wine masters at work, learning about the traditional wine-making process and admiring the scenic alpine vistas and autumnal colours along the way.

From here, guests will head to the renowned Sorasso winery for a bespoke wine tasting session, where they will enjoy curated tastings of Nebbiolo (Chiavennasca), vibrant whites and delicate sparkling wines. With each sip telling its own tale of heritage, the journey culminates in the cellar, where guests can select the wines that resonate most to enjoy long after they return home.

From €250 per person. For more information and to book, please contact the Hilton Lake Como Concierge.
