The visit begins with a walk through the vineyards where the family history and estate details are shared.

The tasting includes a selection of red wines produced on site: Valpolicella, Ripasso, and Amarone. The winemaker guides you through how to assess the wines by sight, smell, and taste. Alongside the wines, you will sample local Monte Veronese cheese, Soppressa Valpolicella salami, and a special cherry chutney. The tasting takes place on a terrace that overlooks the Valpolicella hills, offering a wide view of the surrounding landscape. This visit is hosted directly by the winery without intermediaries or tour operators, providing a personal experience with the winemaker.
