The 65th edition of Il Fiera Del Vino Valtenesi……the most popular Lake Garda food and wine event. The oldest and most famous showcase for the wine production in the Valtenesi region on the west shore of Lake Garda.
Celebrating the newly awarded Valtenesi DOC which was previously know as Garda Classico.
You simply turn up, purchase a wine glass for around €10 then meet the producers and taste as many of the wines from this privileged corner of the lake.
There are two tasting areas.
Piazzetta del Biologico-dedicated to the increasing number of producers who have chosen the philosophy of organic production.
Corte degli Assaggi-which offers guided tasting accompanied with two local cheeses – Tomebea from Valvestino and Bagoss from Bagolino.
There is also a food area serving spiedo and musical entertainment.
Please not that on Saturday the event starts at 6.00pm
A couple of years ago I was on vacation with my husband and we experienced a fantastic day doing wine tasting (Garda Classio). We were staying in Salo at the time and had the most wonderful day going around to all the different vineyards sampling their wine and food. I would love to experience this again but cannot find when this event is on for 2016. It was around September/October when we got to do this trip, if you had any information with regard to this event on the Lake I would be very grateful.
Kind regards,
Margaret
Hi Margaret, I believe the event was the Fiera Peugnago del Garda which is usually held around the first or second weekend of September.
