CASTELNUOVO DEL GARDA
Castelnuovo del Garda was named Quadrivum by the Romans, marking its special geographical position, but, following Barbarossa’s invasion in the 12th century, the population was forced to build a new fortified settlement, Castrum Novum.

A small part of the Municipality of Castelnuovo overlooks one of the most beautiful shores of Lake Garda, but its territory extends mainly into the moraine hills where the silver leaves of the olive trees and geometrical rows of vines, world-famous for excellent wine, provide tourists and visitors with unforgettable views of rare beauty. The grape festival in September is just one of the many events that attract both Italian and foreign friends who have a passion for wine.

Since 2012, the winery has been using the main Italian protocols regarding sustainable viticulture, participating in the Italian Wine Union’s Tergeo project.
