Raining and cold. Ten degrees colder, in fact, than yesterday. Snow overnight on the mountains.But let's look on the bright side...The wisteria are in exuberant bloom all over Carmine and beyond. 
And this is the most beautiful wisteria of them all, at Casa Bava, Cannobio's most celebrated wine merchant, itself celebrating the arrival of the latest (2007) vintage of its own-label wine, LagoBava.
The Bava family have been selling wine from this beautiful building for more than 100 years. Here you'll learn something about wine in general, and Piemontese wines in particular from the elegant and knowledgeable Bava brothers. And if you're lucky, you'll discover something of the history of Cannobio's fascinating lakefront in this ancient stone labyrinth of a house. You might even want to buy some wine...Recommended.
