Wine Tour in the Euganean Hills

The Wine tour in the Euganean Hills will take you to discover this group of hills of volcanic origin that rise to heights from 300 to 600 metres above the Paduan plain, less than one hour drive from Venice. You will enter the heart of the Euganean Hills Regional Park to discover, thanks to a visit of two renowned wine cellars in the Euganean area, the best wine production in the area. In the Euganean lands, in fact, the particular volcanic origin of the soil and the good climate allow the cultivation of various grape varieties. White wines include Serprino (a biotype of the Glera vine), which can be called the ‘volcanic’ version of Prosecco; Pinot bianco; Garganega, Chardonnay and Manzoni. The local red wines include Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Carmènere. During the walk through the vineyards, the visit to the barrel cellar and various wine tastings, you will listen to the knowledgeable story of the winemaker who will guide you through the tasting process to capture all the expressions of his best wines.
