What grows here
Calvagese della Riviera
18 protected denominations overlap in this municipality.
Calvagese della Riviera, which expanded in 1928 by absorbing the neighboring village of Carzago Riviera, is a Brescia territory shaped by its proximity to Lake Garda. This strategic position fosters 18 protected denominations, led by highly localized wines like Benaco Bresciano IGT and Riviera del Garda Classico DOC. The area's morainic soil and mild lake breezes create an ideal environment for viticulture. Today, 4 verified producers operate within the municipality, crafting distinct regional wines, with 2 of these estates opening their doors to international travelers for tastings.
