lake garda
“Pour the wine, the excellent marzemino”
Mozart, Don Giovanni
A region dressed in the reflection of the country’s largest lake, and a wine region that will delight all wine lovers.
Lake Garda isn’t usually associated with wine, but the umbrella appellation Garda DOC has been in existence since 1996 and this well known area is also little known wine region.
Sunlight reflects on the lake and illuminates the surroundings, which are framed by lemon trees, caper bushes, vineyards and olive trees.
Garda DOC brings together ten existing appellations in the area, including some famous ones such as Valpolicella, Soave and Bardolino. This slice of the Mediterranean at the foot of the Alps grows a wide range of grapes waiting to be discovered.
