<p>In the heart of Veneto, discover the excellence of olive growing and wine production in the Euganean Hills.</p><p>Vineyards and olive groves have long been cultivated in our area, and from these products true delicacies are produced: the wine and oil of the Euganean Hills.</p><p>Olive oil is certainly a source of pride for this area: we will visit an oil mill, where the producers will show us the art of olive oil production, and guide us through a tasting of the final product.</p><p>We have then chosen for you, one of the best wineries in this area, where after a visit to the cellar, you will taste the typical wines of the Euganean Hills. Here, the particular volcanic origin of the soil and the favourable climate allow the cultivation of a variety of vines: Serprino, a biotype of the Glera vine, is the 'volcanic' version of Prosecco, but Pinot bianco, Garganega and Chardonnay are also among the most popular whites, not forgetting the presence of Manzoni bianco. The reds include the Bordeaux varieties Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Carmènere. Between a walk through the vineyards, a visit to the barrel cellar and several wine tastings paired with typical local products, we will listen to the knowledgeable wine growers who will tell us all about the expressions of their best wines.</p><p>Fares available:</p><p>Self-guided tour: transport and accompaniment not provided.
