Discovering the wine region of Benaco Bresciano

Lombard IGT on the south-west shore of Lake Garda (~69 ha in 24 communes), micro-Mediterranean climate tempered by the lake. Groppello is the flagship native red of Garda: light and fruity with notes of red cherry, raspberry, dried flowers, spices and a peppery touch, fine tannins and refreshing acidity. Spicy Marzemino, lively Barbera, supple Cabernet and Merlot as complements. Ample Chardonnay and taut Riesling for the whites.

A supple category complementing Garda and Valtènesi.

Discover the grape variety: Marzemino

Supple and fruity reds with a clear ruby colour and melted tannins, on intense aromas of red fruits (cherry, raspberry), plum, violet, sweet spices and herbal notes. Round palate, fresh finish. Star of Trentino Marzemino DOC (notably in the Vallagarina valley, southern Trentino), celebrated by Mozart in Don Giovanni ("versa il vino, eccellente Marzemino!"). Also grown in Lombardy. Native Italian variety from the north-east.
