On May 16 and May 17 the Borgo di San Giorgio, a hamlet of the municipality of Sant'Ambrogio di Valpolicella certified among "The Most Beautiful Villages in Italy," invites you to celebrate the "season of good drinking" with the one of several appointments of a traveling journey through the most representative Italian villages of national wine production.

Surrounded by typical stone buildings, sunny vineyards and overlooking Lake Garda, San Giorgio di Valpolicella looks like a natural fortress set on a hill. The village is also called "ingannapoltron," from poltron (lazy) and ganne (stone) because seen from below it looks very close, in reality it is reached after a rather strenuous journey.

With the Borgo diVino weekend tour you can lose yourself among its alleys and paths, tasting a glass of wine, in that territory of which Amarone and Recioto, Valpolicella, Valpolicella Superiore and Ripasso are the undisputed protagonists.

HOW IT WORKS:

To taste the wines, you can purchase a voucher (€20) online or on-site. This voucher includes eight tastings of your choice from those available in the exhibition area and a kit including a glass and a wine bag. The gastronomic specialties can also be purchased directly on-site.
