Wine tasting at Lake Garda in a wine cellar with lunch in a farmhouse

Would you like to discover the Benaco area through wines and typical products? Then you can try a wine tasting with a visit to a wine cellar and lunch at an agritourismo in a renowned winery nestled in the hills of Padenghe, in the Valtenesi area.

An itinerary that begins with a guided tour of the wine cellar, to get a closer look at the places where the grapes are processed and the wines matured. It is ideal for those who want to learn more about the local wine culture and the main differences between appellations of controlled origin and native grape varieties. An experience that continues with the tasting of four different types of wine produced from the grapes harvested by this reality, one of the most prestigious wine cellars of Lake Garda, which today has become an important wine resort and a destination for gourmets and travellers.

Among white, red and rosé wines, you can broaden your oenological culture by testing the best wine labels, accompanying this with a delicious lunch based on zero-kilometre gastronomic products from the agriturismo itself. A refined and varied selection that will win you over taste after taste. All while enjoying a magnificent view of the hills of Lake Garda from the shade of centuries-old trees or - in case of rain - from the windows of the splendid tasting room of the farmhouse.

How does a wine-tasting activity at Lake Garda with lunch at the winery take place?

• What wines are offered during the wine tasting on Lake Garda and what characteristics make them unique?

Lake Garda wine tastings include red, rosé and white wines. The choice of labels depends very much on the annual production: the sommeliers of the well-known Padenghe cellar will evaluate the best references of the year to offer you.

• Where exactly will the wine-tasting experience with lunch on Lake Garda take place, outdoors or in the cellars?

The farmhouse wine-tasting experience can take place either inside, in the historic tasting room of the farmhouse, or outside, in the courtyard or under the pergola. It all depends on the weather conditions and the seasonal climate.

• What local dishes and specialities will be served on the tasting menu during the Lake Garda experience?

All the dishes offered are made with local and seasonal products. The lunch with wine tasting of Lake Garda may be subject to change depending on the availability of food. You can communicate your allergies, intolerances or other food preferences (such as vegan or vegetarian diets) through the special messaging service, available immediately after booking.

• Is it possible to customise the experience by adding extra options, such as a tour of the Padenghe wineries on Lake Garda before the tasting lunch or wine tasting?

It is not possible to add other extra experiences to the Lake Garda wine tasting, such as visits or tours to other wine cellars. You can, however, integrate this experience with other activities in the NowMyPlace catalogue.

• Will transport services be provided to reach the winery or do you have to organise your own transport?

We do not provide a transport service to reach the winery in Padenghe. The location can be reached easily on one's own, by hired transport or taxi.

The temperature in the cellar is around 13-14°C, we recommend a jumper or sweater during this part of the experience.

As soon as you purchase the experience, you will have a chat facility through which you can tell us if you have any intolerances or allergies to specific ingredients or if you are a vegetarian.
