Bardolino

Known as Lake Garda’s wine-producing area, Bardolino sits on the Veneto side of the lake and is home to over 70 vineyards and wine producers.

A must-visit for wine lovers, this charming town hosts a lively festival every October called Festa dell'Uva e del Vino, which is a celebration of local wine and produce.

Whenever you visit, be sure to sample a few of the full-bodied reds which the region is renowned for.

For a cultural interlude between all the delicious food and drink, head to the nearby medieval walled village of Lazise.
