Great experience

We were very pleased with our experience at Tenuta Santa Maria Valverde. They arranged a pick up and return to the train station for this tour and it was truly appreciated. Just sitting on the outdoor terrace, enjoying the views, tasting the oils, wine, and delicious food was a wonderful experience. Would highly recommend.

10/10

Myself and my partner had the most perfect late morning tour of the vineyard followed by carefully selected pairings of wine, cheese, meats and jams. The scenery was incredible, the venue itself was spacious, clean and well decorated. The highlight of the visit for us though was spending time with Claudia who was very friendly, informative and accommodating. Would definitely recommend to anyone visiting Verona/the surrounding areas, a very enjoyable few hours in a tranquil setting.

Valpolicella at its finest

Verona was in a travel meltdown - literally as the temperatures were in the high 30s and there were no trains from Verona to Valpolicella! Thankfully the hosts offered to organise separate transport for us which meant we were able to attend the tasting at the house. Claudia our host was just brilliant - she showed us around the vineyards and the cellars and shared a very generous platter and array of olive oils first, followed by some very fine Valpolicella made by the house Tenuta Santa Maria...read more

Wonderful Atmosphere, Staff, and Food

Me and my friends really enjoyed the experience tasting different olive oils, trying wonderful cheeses and drinking wines from the area! The staff were really friendly and kind and answered any questions we asked. They even gave us specific directions on how to use public transportation and helped us get to the bus stop. Without them, we wouldn't have enjoyed the experience as much as we did. The atmosphere was beautiful and the view of the hills and valley from the winery can not be beaten. It ...read more
