An afternoon of Amarone discovery - It was a wonderful afternoon spent getting to know about the wine region especially the original story on how Amarone was discovered and made. Guide was very knowledgeable and wine tasting is generous too.

The highlight of our trip to Noth italy. - This was the highlight of our trip to the Venice area. A spectacular building in attractive rolling countryside. Sarah was so enthusiastic and knowledgeable and we learnt a lot. The tasting with the accompanying slides was delectable. I just wishes we could have afforded more of the stunning wines.

Lovely place, good wine, amazing views! - I went on a solo trip and went on the tour followed by a wine tasting. The 4 wines were lovely and I ended up buying a bottle of the white. Affordable and really yummy! Amazing space and fantastic atmosphere!

Great wine tasting!! - Great wine tour with Zoe. She was thorough, friendly and knowledgeable. There were 2 ladies that arrived 45 minutes late to the tour and were quite demanding. Zoe handled this situation with grace even though they were rude.

Lovely vineyard and grounds - Nice tour of vineyard and grounds. Very informative and Zoe explained everything well and was very friendly. Lovely tasting room with great explanation of the wines with PowerPoint. Tasty wines but felt a bit rushed. We had additional two wines (Merlot 2019&2013) which were delicious but not mentioned until the very end. We would have appreciated a bit more time to enjoy these.

Interesting and enjoyable afternoon out from Verona. - Enjoyed this tour. Zoe took us on a tour of the grounds, house and cellars telling us about the history of the estate and the winemaking process before we tried a selection of their wines. The tour was informal but informative and the selection of wines was diverse. Zoe was friendly and knowledgeable- answering the many questions with ease. She deftly interchanged between presenting in Italian and English for the different people in the group. An enjoyable afternoon a short bus ride from the city.

Beautiful vineyard, but the tour / wine tasting was superficial. - Beautiful property surrounded by vineyards. Nice tour, but quite superficial. A little disturbing that everything was taken in Italian first and then translated into English (many who spoke during English review, so not so easy to hear everything). Little opportunity to ask questions. If you are really interested in wine then choose another trip. We chose the most expensive variant and thought we would get a more thorough tour/review, but the difference consisted only of 2 additional Merlot wines on the tasting section (and one did not taste much). Recommend to take the most affordable trip.

Nice chateau with nice wines - It's a beautiful chateau. The run-in was a little tricky. The tickets booked through the tour ticket. You can therefore easily adjust the number of tickets (31 euros) but that was not possible via the app. Called the castle and it was no problem and she had already adapted it for me (2 less). Unfortunately on arrival it was again no problem but I had to reclaim the 62 euros myself via the my ticket. They didn't say that on the phone. After an hour of chatting up and down, there is now a commitment that the money will be refunded, but the money is not yet in. The tour could have been a little longer. We didn't see the new wine barrels. Only the very old ones that are no longer used. Also not been to the vineyard itself. That's a shame. The explanation about the wines was in a nice cool location with great explanation and PowerPoint. The wines were fine but certainly not cheap. With a few small adjustments, they can improve it. I wouldn't go back now for 31 euros.
