Lake Garda EVOO Tour & Tasting at Colle d’Oro: Benefits, Uses, and Guided Tastings
Here is what's in store for you
Step into a unique oleotourism experience at Colle d’Oro sul Lago, a boutique olive estate on Lake Garda, where nature, tradition, and taste come together in a fun and engaging sensory journey. This multi-award-winning family-run farm has been recognized in prestigious national and international competitions, and welcomes you to discover the world of high-quality extra virgin olive oil in an authentic setting with breathtaking views.
During your visit, you’ll enjoy a stunning 360° panorama, where the rolling Morainic hills meet the deep blue of Lake Garda, and you’ll learn the story of our young family business through a guided introduction full of passion, expertise, and dedication. The tasting is designed as an interactive “sensory game”, suitable for both adults and children: using official tasting glasses, you’ll learn how to smell and taste the aromas and nuances of our finest oils, including Garda DOP, our certified local excellence, Premium and Oro del Vajo, our top-tier selections, and our Infused Dressings, naturally flavored oils created through traditional infusion. To complete the experience, you’ll enjoy our signature olives and gourmet olive pâtés served on crusty, fresh bread.
After the tour, you will be able to visit the estate's on-site shop and purchase their Extra Virgin Olive Oils and products, including the exclusive "Garda Lake Beauty" cosmetic line (infused with our Garda DOP oil), as well as a selection of other local regional specialties.
