What to expect
Your guide will meet you for transport to the winery, located in the heart of Valpolicella. Once there, the owners or their team walk you through their cellar and vineyards, explaining fermentation, aging, and blending methods specific to the region. You'll taste several wines—typically a mix of younger and aged releases—learning to identify characteristics of each. Expect around two hours of tasting and discussion, with time to ask questions about production decisions and the vineyard's philosophy. The pace is relaxed and conversational rather than formal.
Good to know
Bring water and eat something beforehand—wines are tasted on an empty stomach but food helps. Wear comfortable shoes for cellar and vineyard walking. Availability of specific wines varies seasonally. Not suitable if pregnant or with significant heart conditions.
