The Valpolicella is the hilly region north of Verona, famous throughout the world for its red wines: the fresch and fruity Valpolicella Classico, with its Superiore version, the fragrant Ripasso, the powerful and intense Amarone, the sweet Recioto. Peculiarities of these wines are the native grapes and the drying technique.

 

I only select small-medium family-run wineries, where the production process is entirely carried out by family members, from the vineyard to the bottle, where the quality of the wine is also determined by the different meteorological characteristics of the vintages, and in general the product is never standard.

 

After an abundant and complete tasting, we will drive across the Morainic Hills to reach the Riviera degli Ulivi, the eastern coast of Lake Garda, the largest in Italy.

 

We suggest a stop in Bardolino, where there will be the possibility of free time for lunch or shopping or, why not, for a swim on the beach. A second stop before returning could be the old town of Lazise, ​​surrounded by imposing crenellated walls, with the Scaligero castle and its little port. ​

 

Obviously it is possible to modulate the day by starting with the lake, and concluding with the tasting in Valpolicella. ​
