What grows here
Garda
19 protected denominations overlap in this municipality.
On the Veronese shore of the lake that shares its name, this lakeside community of 4,050 residents acts as a microclimate cradle for 19 protected food and wine denominations. Here, the morainic hills facing the water nurture the light, ruby-red Bardolino DOC and its aged counterpart, Bardolino Superiore DOCG, both limited to a narrow zone of just 16 municipalities. Olive groves clinging to these glaciated slopes yield the delicate Veneto Valpolicella DOP extra virgin olive oil, completing a liquid heritage shaped by Garda’s unique lacustrine microclimate.
