Transport out to the estate is a separate option. 4.73 from 62 reviews at €60 per person for 2h 30m. ## Overview Discover how organic extra virgin olive oil is made and enjoy a tasting of different Italian olive oils paired with regional wine and delicious local cheeses, salami with bread and chutney. Take a stroll through an olive tree garden and admire an amazing view of the Valpolicella. Visit an authentic family run winery in the heart of Valpolicella and enjoy a peaceful stroll around the vineyard.
