Giovanna Tantini Winery Guided Tour + Tasting

In this guided tour of the Giovanna Tantini winery, you'll enter the wine world of Lake Garda and take part in a tasting of 6 wines.

Description

We'll meet at the Giovanna Tantini winery in Castelnuovo del Garda at the specified time. After gathering, we'll learn about the philosophy, history, and facilities of this wine-focused company.

The experience begins with a stroll through the cellar's vineyards with Giovanna Tantini, the owner. We will explore the different grape varieties on the estate before starting the tasting, which includes a total of 6 wines and a platter of cold meats and cheeses.

The first tasting will be of Custoza, a fresh white wine typical of the area, followed by a Chiaretto, the Rosè DOC from Lake Garda made from Corvina, Rondinella, and Molinara grapes. We will then taste a Bardolino DOC, the company’s specialty, and a Garda Corvina DOC 100% Corvina, a fresh version of the local grape.

The penultimate tasting will be an Ettore IGT, a blend of Corvina, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Merlot aged in wood for 18 months. The final tasting will feature Greta IGT, made from grapes dried in the vineyard, displaying a strong identity.

After 1.5 hours of wine tasting, we'll conclude the tour.
