Millesimo is a charming haven of peace on the western shore of Lake Como. With its scenic lakeside terrace, this wine bar offers breathtaking views of the surrounding mountains and picturesque villages. Thanks to its superb location, Millesimo is a beloved spot among both locals and tourists who, during the warmer months, flock to this hidden gem in Carate Urio to enjoy a quick lunch or a refreshing aperitif by the lake. The menu features tasty bistro-style dishes—simple yet refined—as well as a small selection of warm plates that change with the seasonal availability of ingredients.
The wine list, curated with passion by Emanuele Riva—also owner of La Cava dei Sapori in Como—offers a refined selection of Italian and international producers. The cellar boasts an extensive range of Italian sparkling wines, Champagne, and traditional method bubbles, along with aromatic whites, rosés, sweet wines, and full-bodied aged reds from both Italy and France. Special attention is also given to organic and biodynamic wines from some of the world’s most historic wine regions.
The venue itself is intimate and welcoming, with a clean, minimalist interior animated by wine crates and shelves lined with bottles—a true expression of Emanuele's love for enology. Whether you're planning a tasting session, a casual lunch, an evening aperitivo, or a Sunday brunch, Millesimo is the perfect place to unwind in style and flavor, surrounded by the natural beauty of Lake Como. The knowledgeable and friendly staff will be happy to guide guests through a personalized journey of wines and flavors suited to every palate.
