If you’re searching for a unique family experience on Lake Como, look no further than the enchanting Sorsasso Winery. Our evening at Sorsasso was a highlight of our trip, blending gorgeous views, warm hospitality, and delicious Italian cuisine in a way that delighted every member of our family.
A Family-Run Winery with Rich Tradition
Sorsasso Winery has a rich history rooted in tradition and passion. Owned and operated by the Travi family for generations, the winery is perched above Domaso, offering sweeping vistas of Lake Como and the surrounding vineyards. The family is dedicated to sustainable winemaking, and all the wines are crafted from grapes grown on the estate’s sun-kissed slopes. The atmosphere is intimate and welcoming, making you feel like a guest in their home rather than just a visitor.
A Magical Wine and Dinner Tasting Experience
Our wine and dinner tasting experience was nothing short of magical. Tables are set beneath a covered terrace, perfectly positioned to take in the golden sunset over the lake and vineyards. We enjoyed a four-course meal, each dish paired with one of Sorsasso’s signature wines. The kids were happy with their pasta and a generous scoop of ice cream, and the winery even provided a baby chair for our littlest one. We brought along coloring books and activities, which kept the children entertained between courses. The Travi family’s warmth was evident—they invited the kids into the kitchen for a behind-the-scenes look at how their meal was prepared! As the sun sets below the mountains, the air can get a bit chilly, so plan accordingly.
Reservations and Arrival Tips
If you’re planning to visit, be sure to make a reservation in advance by contacting the winery directly. Sorsasso is located in Domaso and offers some parking on-site. We arrived by car but noticed that several groups had prearranged taxis—a convenient and preferable option.
Our evening at Sorsasso Winery was a combination of stunning scenery, delectable food and wine, and genuine hospitality, making it a highlight of our Lake Como adventure. Whether you’re traveling with kids or just looking for a special night out, Sorsasso is a great spot for anyone seeking an authentic taste of Italian family tradition.
