We are located in the town of Calmasino, on the hills just above Bardolino, two kilometers from Lake Garda.
You can come and visit us for a simple aperitif or for a real wine tasting and a guided tour that represent a real journey into the world of natural wine.
Below you can find the various types of wine tasting that we organize.
We offer 4 types of tasting:
- The guided tour begins at 5.00 pm with a tour of the cellar, followed by a visit to the vineyards.
- You can come at 15.00 and first have the fixed menu tasting and at 17.00 the guided tours which will end at approximately 18.00.
- Or you can choose to come at 5.00 pm and carry out the guided tours first and then the tasting menu which will end around 8.00 pm.
You can drink only a glass of one of our wines or choose the complete 4-wine tasting + 4 pairings if you want to have lunch \ dinner: we offer only selected products from the Veronese territory of small realities (cold cuts and cheeses) accompanied by homemade bread, our sott ‘ oil, our oil and our jams. Our wine tastings are not simple tastings: they are a moment of approach to the world of wine to understand all its various nuances.
We will tell you how the different wines are made, the history of Bardolino wine and that of our cellar. If you are also interested in the guided tour, Daniele, owner and winemaker of Villa Calicantus, will accompany you first to the cellar and then to the vineyards to explain how we work organically / biodynamically at Villa Calicantus.
Villa Calicantus is a small reality and therefore we offer a few selected products. The products served during the tastings are only those indicated in the menu above. Those who do not eat meat or dairy products can ask to have the other products on the menu several times or to have a price reduced for the products not consumed by the tasting price. For gluten intolerant people, we replace our bread with organic corn or rice waffles. We kindly ask you to do this at the time of booking so that we can organize ourselves better.
