Anchoring the southern edge of the renowned Franciacorta wine district, Rovato sits right at the base of Monte Orfano. With a population of 17,562, the town (locally called Ruàt) serves as a practical gateway to Lombardy's vineyard-covered hills, located just 11 kilometers south of Lake Iseo.
Officially elevated to city status in June 2014, the municipality shares its borders with Coccaglio and Erbusco. Lying 18 kilometers west of Brescia, it provides a straightforward, highly accessible starting point for touring the surrounding wine country.
