Full description
As the sun sinks behind the rows of vines, bathing the hills in a warm red glow, you sit on a blanket at the top of a vineyard with a panoramic view, a glass of Metodo Classico in your hand!
Join us for this sunset picnic in the Oltrepò Pavese and let your gaze wander from Montalto Pavese Castle to the majestic silhouette of Monte Rosa.
A 3-hour experience on the Podere Bignolino estate, where fine flavours meet a warm welcome!
What we will do
The event will take place at the selected time at the Podere Bignolino winery in Montalto Pavese (PV). On arrival, we will be welcomed by the Contardi family’s staff, who will provide us with a blanket so we can settle down at the picnic spots, with views over the hills of the Oltrepò Pavese.
We’ll be able to choose a bottle of Metodo Classico white or rosé wine, to be enjoyed with a selection of cold cuts, artisan cheeses and bread, which will be served to us at our spot.
From this panoramic vantage point, we’ll be able to enjoy the spectacle of the sunset illuminating Montalto Pavese Castle, and on the clearest days we’ll even be able to catch a glimpse of Monte Rosa in the distance.
The experience will last approximately 3 hours.
