Lake Garda: Wine & Local Products Tasting with Fiat Topolino – Lombardy, Italy

EXPERIENCE

Imagine a summer evening on the shores of Lake Garda, where the air is filled with the scent of olives and the sky is tinged with orange hues at sunset. In this idyllic setting, enjoy a wine and local product tasting that celebrates the rich gastronomic heritage of the region.

Gather around rustic wooden tables adorned with linen tablecloths and flickering candles, creating a welcoming and intimate atmosphere. The sommelier presents a curated selection of local wines, starting with a fresh and fruity Lugana, which dances on the palate with notes of green apple and citrus.

Follow this with a light red Bardolino, with its aromas of cherry and spices, perfect for pairing with thinly sliced cured meats. Between sips, savor artisanal cheeses, such as Monte Veronese, with its creamy texture and delicately spicy taste, which pairs wonderfully with the wine.

Sample Ascolane olives, stuffed and fried, offering a crunchy and salty contrast to the sweet notes of the wines. Continue with a tasting of extra virgin olive oil, extracted from olives grown on the hills surrounding the lake. Its rich and fruity flavor is a true delight for the palate, especially when paired with slices of toasted homemade bread.

The tasting concludes with an Amarone della Valpolicella, a robust and full-bodied wine that enchants with its aromas of ripe fruit and chocolate. Accompanied by a taste of apple pie, typical of the area, the wine reveals its complexity and long finish.
