About this activity

The tasting takes place in a historic underground room carved into the rock, where our own wine collection lines the walls. Cool and welcoming even at the peak of summer, the space has a quiet, vintage charm you won't find in an ordinary tasting room.

You'll try three young wines from small local producers — a sparkling welcome glass, a delicate rosé, and a crisp white — each paired with a generous board of regional cured meats, cheeses, fresh bread, and seasonal vegetables.

It's an unhurried, genuinely local experience in the countryside behind Lake Garda. And you're perfectly placed to explore: the Scaliger Castle above Valeggio sul Mincio, the water gardens of Parco Giardino Sigurtà, and the riverside village of Borghetto sul Mincio, one of the most beautiful in Italy, are all within easy reach.

Itinerary

Set in the gentle countryside behind Lake Garda, near Valeggio sul Mincio in Italy's Veneto region, this tasting unfolds at an easy, unhurried pace among the quiet hills that shape the wines in your glass. The setting is part of the experience: a historic underground room carved into the rock, where our wine collection lines the walls. Cool and welcoming even at the height of summer. You'll sample three young wines from small local producers: a welcome sparkling glass, a delicate rosé, and a crisp white. Each pour shows the lively, fruity character of wines made to be enjoyed in their youth. Everything comes with a generous tasting board of local cured meats, cheeses, fresh bread, and seasonal vegetables — a spread that captures the everyday flavors of this corner of Italy. Take your time and enjoy the pairings as they unfold. Before or after your tasting, set aside time to explore the surroundings. Climb to the Scaliger Castle above Valeggio for wide views over the valley, wander the sculpted lawns and water gardens of Parco Giardino Sigurtà, or follow the river down to Borghetto sul Mincio, a small village of old watermills counted among the most beautiful in Italy.
