5.00Fantastic wine tasting at Franchini and La Dama in beautiful Valpolicella. Knowledgeful and dedicated hosts shared exciting stories about the area’s traditions and the production of Amarone. The tasting offered several great wines in beautiful surroundings, combined with genuine Italian hospitality. An absolute highlight on the trip to Lake Garda, highly recommended to anyone interested in wine and local food experiences.
I love red wine!

5.00We visited two wineries, Corte Borghetti and Corte Archi, only 20 minutes or so drive from Verona. The contrast between the two wineries and the approach to growing and making wines was very noticeable, which made the tour worthwhile. In total nine red wines were tasted and many bottles purchased. The air con in the van was welcomed and the insights provided by our guide helped so much. Very happy that we booked the tour.
Lorenzo was our tour...

4.00A decent afternoon out. Got to taste 10ndifferent wines from 2 wineries. A medium sized winery and a small producer. Both interesting and both with excellent wine. The first winery gave decent sized portions and a fantastic selection of meats and cheeses to taste the wine with. The 2nd winery was a tad tight with the measures though.
Excellent host,...

5.00Excellent host, knowledgeable speakers and great wine. Some of the wines are touted to pair very well with chocolate, they did not have any chocolate. That was the only down side. One of the vineyards had a few dogs who were very friendly. 10/10
Great wine tasting experience!

5.00Our group of 6 thoroughly enjoyed the chauffeured drive by Lorenzo and his informative commentary, and we loved the visit to La Dama and Francini family-operated vineyards. The visit to the cellars of both vineyards were picturesque, while the wine tastings were fabulous. An excellent tour that we would highly recommend.
Great Wine Tour!
