Overview
I pick you up from your accommodation in Verona province and take you into the heart of Valpolicella Classica, through its five historic municipalities. Stops along the way follow your interests, from scenic viewpoints to a short walk among the vineyards. We then reach a small, family-run winery I've personally selected, where you're welcomed like family and shown the cellar and vineyards before tasting. You'll taste 4-6 wines from the winery's production, typically Valpolicella Classico, Ripasso and Amarone, made mainly from Corvina and Rondinella grapes. Food isn't included, so the tasting unfolds at a relaxed, unhurried pace. At the end, I drive you back to your accommodation. What makes it special: small groups only, no buses, no crowds — just real conversations with the people who make the wine. Valpolicella is best understood slowly, through its family cellars rather than its best-known labels — and that's exactly what this tour offers: genuine access to its hidden side.

Our Incontro unfolds in two parts. First, we explore the territory together: I'll pick you up from your accommodation and we'll venture through the five historic municipalities of Valpolicella Classica, past villages, vineyards and views you'd struggle to find on your own — your curiosity sets the pace.

Then I take you to a small, family-run winery I've personally chosen for your group: you'll be welcomed like friends, not like the next busload of tourists. A member of the family — often the one who makes the wine with their own hands, sometimes the one who's loved and told its story for a lifetime — will guide you through the vines and the cellar, sharing the story of their land, before offering a guided tasting of 4 to 6 wines, an authentic expression of this territory. The whole experience lasts about 2 to 3 hours, with no rush at all. At the end, I'll drive you back to your accommodation, leaving you with the taste of Valpolicella in your heart.
