Winery Tour and Wine Tasting in the Lake Garda Countryside

There is a corner of land, suspended between the shimmering waters of Lake Garda and the peaceful countryside of Mantua, where time is measured solely by the rhythms of nature. It is here, in the heart of the Mincio Natural Park Oasis, that an experience is born for those who are not simply looking for a glass of wine, but for a story to be savored.

Just a short distance from the lively shores of Sirmione, Peschiera del Garda and Verona, the area of Volta Mantovana reveals an unspoiled and gently rolling landscape, shaped by centuries-old limestone and gravelly soils that have long nurtured the vines.

The philosophy of this family-run winery is rooted in the dream of a group of friends who chose to blend youthful passion with the wisdom of traditional farming passed down through generations. Visiting this estate means stepping into a world where handcrafted winemaking techniques meet modern precision, with a single goal: creating natural wines that truly reflect their terroir. Every row of vines is tended with deep respect for the natural life cycle of the plant, enhancing the aromatic and sensory qualities that make Garda DOC wines true highlights of the Upper Mincio area.

The experience begins with a guided winery tour, where stories and secrets of this fascinating craft are shared. It then continues with an in-depth wine tasting of five artisanal labels, a journey through the different expressions of local grape varieties. Each glass is carefully paired with a refined selection of local food specialties, creating a perfect harmony between wine and the authentic flavors of the region.

Beyond the tasting itself, for those who wish to enjoy the magic of golden-hour light, the evening experience becomes an alternative gourmet aperitif. As the sun sets, the winery transforms into an informal and intimate retreat, far from the usual tourist routes. It is the ideal moment for travelers seeking a relaxing and authentic experience, where the beauty of the Morainic Hills blends seamlessly with the freshness of a truly expressive wine.

This is an invitation to rediscover the pleasure of slowing down, surrounded by an unspoiled countryside just minutes from the main destinations of southern Lake Garda and the renowned Lugana wine region. A full immersion into rural winemaking culture, where professionalism and simplicity come together naturally.
