"Located near Franciacorta between Milan and Verona, Lake Iseo moderates temperatures year-round; its warmth, together with cool breezes from the Camonica valley and seasonal spring and summer storms, helps create the mild, moisture-balanced microclimate that supports vine growing and contributes to the region’s unique terroir, which is shaped by glacially formed rolling hills and permeable sand-and-silt soils." - Michael He
