Cascina Teresina

Winery in Como Lake

About the Winery

Cascina Teresina embodies a deep respect for nature and a passionate dedication to winemaking. The winery sources its grapes exclusively from its own vineyards in Valtellina, Teglio, and on the Lake Como in Veleso. In Valtellina, a centenary vineyard thrives, while on Lake Como, a new vineyard has recently become productive, utilizing innovative PIWI varieties that resist fungal diseases, allowing for balanced, organic vineyard management. Both locations practice "heroic" viticulture, with all work done by hand on steep, challenging terraces.

Cascina Teresina produces a limited number of bottles each year, focusing on quality over quantity, ensuring the authenticity and excellence of each wine. Winemaking processes are kept to a minimum, allowing the natural characteristics of the grapes to shine. This artisanal approach reflects a commitment to sustainable practices and a deep connection to the land.

About the Wines

Cascina Teresina’s wines are a true reflection of their origins, cultivated on steep terraces in Valtellina and the Lariano Triangle overlooking Lake Como. The Lariano Triangle vineyard is unique, being the only one in the area. The challenging terrain demands "heroic mountain viticulture," where all work is done by hand with great care. These vineyards, managed organically, produce high-quality wines, including the distinctive Nebbiolo, known locally as “Chiavennasca” or “Nebbiolo delle Alpi.”

All wines are vinified in steel and aged in small oak barrels, following a philosophy of minimal intervention to allow the wine to evolve naturally and express the true character of the terroir. This commitment to quality and authenticity results in wines that are deeply connected to their environment, offering a unique tasting experience that reflects the rugged beauty of their origins.

It was nice
The hospitality was fine, the wine and food were also fine and of quality. We had a beautiful view too.
If you want to have a beautiful view, good food and wine, it’s very nice, but it's not a vineyard or tasting experience.

Cascina Teresina - Problem with Pet
Unfortunately, we had a bad experience.
When we arrived at Cascina Teresina, the owner greeted us from afar, informing us that dogs were not allowed on the premises.
(We have a small, gentle dog that weighs 5 kg.)

We didn't read about any restrictions on the Wondering website.
We probably should have contacted the establishment directly to find out (usually we do that),
but the fact that there were outdoor tables and we were located at 1,000 meters above sea level in a natural, mountainous setting left us assuming there wouldn't be any problems.

Since we were coming from far away, and had already used the voucher (total spend of €100), we asked the owner if he could accommodate us and give us
a table off to the side without disturbing anyone (even though the place was completely empty at the time).

There was no convincing him; we had to leave the dog in the car (the parking lot is more than 100 meters away on a steep mountain road),
drink a quick glass of wine within 10 minutes, and then return to the car.
We recommend making these restrictions more explicit and perhaps encouraging the owner to be a little more flexible in situations like this.
Thank you.

Peace for the senses
This tasting was a gift from my mom, I was accompanied by my boyfriend. As soon as we arrived we found ourselves immersed in a peace for the senses, there was a wonderful silence. We were completely surrounded by greenery and the view was spectacular. We tasted the "ghiba" which was accompanied by a platter with various cheeses, cured meats and delicacies. We left super full but above all happy. The owner is truly a wonderful person, he accompanied us on this journey into the world of his wines, explaining everything in the smallest detail. After discovering that they also have rooms we will definitely come back, maybe to stay for a weekend.

Great place to eat and taste some wine!
Cascina Teresina provided and excellent collection of local meats and cheese to eat while you drank some of their amazing locally made wine. Even though we arrived a little late to our appointment, the guide was still very friendly and provided a great deal of information about what we were eating and drinking. I would definitely recommended visiting them if you are in the lake como area.

A very overpriced lunch, not a wine tasting
The lunch was well hosted and it was interesting to hear about the methods used at the vineyard however we were given 1 bottle of 18 euro wine to share amongst the group of 3 adults and were not permitted to try the others. Whilst I appreciate that they do not produce a lot of bottles, charging 50 euro per person for 1/3 of a bottle and some meat and cheeses is not good value. The views at the top of the mountain are fantastic although parking is limited and instructions on where to park were not given.
You should make clear this isn’t a tasting but rather a hosted lunch. The price point is far too high for what you get, 25 euros per person would probably be fair. Please also update the online form for children, the form asks you to let them know children from 0-4 years which meant we had to pay 25 euros a 3 month old baby who clearly wasn’t going to consume anything.

Cascina Teresina
Hemos reservado una carta privada para un evento corporativo para 8 personas. Hemos recibido las instrucciones para arribar de forma correcta al lugar y un mensaje del host recordatorio por la mañana. Si bien el lugar no posee parking solamente hay que caminar 150m por el camino de montaña. El lugar es increíble, colgado en la montaña y con una gran vista al lago di como.
Al llegar nos ha recibido con la mesa preparada, lamentablemente por el clima tuvimos que comer dentro pero el lugar es acogedor. Cuando mejoró, nos ha facilitado para quedarnos fuera disfrutando de las vistas.
La comida sensacional con una cata de varios quesos y diferentes embutidos dignos de probar. a diferencia de los vinos, imaginamos que ibamos a probar diversos estilos, pero solamente nos ha abierto un vino solamente, que no fue del gusto de muchos.
La atención y la explicación muy buena y amable.

En nuestra opinión sería conveniente si se ofrece una cata de vino ofrecer diversas variedades y aprovechar a realizar maridajes con el plato que se ofrece y se podría aprovechar

Lovely lunch at Cascina Teresina
Had a fantastic afternoon at this relatively new winery. The views from our table sitting outside were magic! We enjoyed an excellent plate of antipasti of highest quality served with home made bread and a bottle of wine from the house (one bottle per two ppl). The owner took his time explaining about his wines, the winery, its story and his life as a wine maker. We ordered a second bottle to try, which was not a problem.
All in all a very nice experience! We will be back!

Great moment at Cascina Teresina
We had a lovely time at Cascina Teresina. The landscape was absolutely beautiful and our hosts were lovely. They took great care of us. The overall atmosphere was very calm and relaxing. The wine and food were astonishing.
The only thing is that the website mentioned both ham/cheese and a first course. We did not get the latter and did not dare to ask.

Hi, thank you, but we want to outline you have read wrong in our website page, so your feedback lack the truth, we wrote:
"You can decide to upgrade your experience by ordering one of the dishes of the day and also choose some more wines to taste from the a la carte menu."
In few words: the upgrade is an option, you have to ask us if you decide for that option, and obviously you have to ask, last but not least to know what are the dishes of the day available.
