About this experience

The experience begins in the museum, where a “virtual farmer” shares the evolution of vineyard and cellar practices. You'll discover the roots of Montresor Winery and its bond with Verona, then continue to the Barrique Room to explore how each wine gains structure, complexity, and character as it matures.
One of the most captivating parts of the visit is the sensory room, where you’ll be invited to test your nose in an interactive aroma game, identifying typical wine notes like black cherry, cocoa, licorice, and floral essences.

After visiting the museum and the cellar, you’ll be guided through a tasting experience. You can choose the classic tasting, featuring 5 Valpolicella wines.

For a more exclusive journey, opt for the vertical tasting of Amarone, which includes five different expressions of Amarone DOCG. You’ll explore how the wine’s body, intensity, and complexity evolve with time, discovering each nuance sip after sip, perfectly paired with local cured meats and cheese.
