Olive Oil & Wine in the Euganean Hills

What you'll do

Since a long time ago vineyards and olive trees are cultivated and grown in our territory, from these products real delights are produced: the wine and the olive oil of Euganean Hills. Olive oil is certainly a source of proud of this area: we’ll visit an olive oil mill, where the producers will show us the art of olive oil production, and they will guide us while tasting the final product. We chose for you, then, one of the best wineries of this area, where you will taste wines paired with local products. Here the particular volcanic origin of the soil and the good climate allows the cultivation of various vines. Among the white wines: the Serprino, biotype of the Glera vine, is the “volcanic” version of Prosecco; the Pinot bianco; the Garganega, the Chardonnay and Manzoni. Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Carmènere have found space among the reds. Between a walk through the vineyards, a visit to the cellar and several wine tastings paired with typical local products we will listen to the wise tale of the winemakers about the expressions of their best wines. Available rates: Self-guided tour: transport and accompaniment not included. You will be given information on how to reach the winery and the oil mill independently. Duration about 4 hours, including travelling times. From Terme Euganee: includes to-and-from transportation by car/minivan and pick-up from your hotel in Abano Montegrotto Terme.

    Battaglia lies at the easternmost edge of the volcanic Euganean Hills. The construction of the navigable Battaglia canal in the early 13th century brought traffic and growth to the town which commanded a central position at the confluence of several canals in the network of barge traffic that linked Este and Padua, the Adriatic, the Lagoon of Venice and the north by means of the Brenta Canal, the canalized Bacchiglione and the Adige.
