The Franciacorta wine stage on the 23rd May

Giro d’Italia has renewed its link with wine and its landscapes, once again to be the background to the most fascinating two-wheeled stage race. There are grapevines everywhere In Italy, from Valle d’Aosta to Pantelleria, but the great Italian wine names have never before received such high recognition from the “Giro”. Following the Sagrantino Stage, the Chianti Classico Stage, Treviso-Valdobbiadene, Barbaresco-Barolo and the dirt road stage among the Brunello vineyards in Montalcino, on the 23rd May there will be the Franciacorta Stage, the wine-stage among the vines, key to the race for the pink jersey, and narrated by the Director of the Giro, Mauro Vegni, the President of Franciacorta Vittorio Moretti and the Deputy Director of La Gazzetta dello Sport Pier Bergonzi (https://goo.gl/chCzS4).
