Our itinerary to discover the flavours of
Vallagarina begins on the right of the
river Adige. A land rich in history, culture
and traditions that over the centuries has
developed its own identity through the
institution of the ‘Comun Comunale’,
which, in olden times, joined all the
communes on this side of the river.
The first stop is Isera, a production zone
par excellence of the symbolic wine of
Vallagarina: Marzemino. The territory is
2
widespread with tidy vineyards, where
the grapes for this wine, praised by
Mozart, are picked in autumn (6, 13, 15,
18).
Going along the provincial road on the
right side of the Adige, you reach Nomi
and Aldeno devoted to the cultivation of
grapevines. Well established in this
geographic area is Merlot, a vine that is
producing excellent international results
(8, 12, 14, 19, 21).

After Aldeno, climbing towards Cimone
and Garniga Terme, you come to the
enchanting Lake Cei and from there
easily reach Val di Gresta, where very
good organically grown vegetables are
produced. In particular mountain
potatoes, carrots, celeriac, white
cabbage used to make sauerkraut,
chicory and also cauliflowers, Savoy
cabbage, leaks, onions, lettuces,
courgettes, cucumbers and beans
(25, 32).

The Basilica del Vino
In Nomi do not miss a visit to the Basilica
del Vino at the Azienda Agricola Grigoletti.
This is an old recently renovated wine
cellar where thousands of bottles of fine
wines are kept, in particular Merlot. Here,
in a very favourable environment, the
wines can quietly age in time.
