Autumn between Olive Groves and Organic Vineyards

Borgo Romantico: A toast to autumn among organic olive groves and vineyards
While Borgo Romantico prepares for a new season full of surprises, our agricultural estate continues to give us emotions.

Borgo Romantico Relais closed its doors for the 2024 season on November 10, but this does not mean that our passion for Nature and its Fruits goes into hibernation! Indeed, it is precisely during these quieter months that we dedicate our energies to the care of the olive groves and vineyards, for and the production of our fine extra virgin olive oil and organic wines.

Extra Virgin Olive Oil
This year too, as in the past 3 years, we have seen strong variations in climatic conditions, and the olive tree has suffered greatly. Production has been good, but the heavy rains in spring and from September 10 to the end of October have had a major impact on the yield, bringing it from the historic 17-18% to 6-8%. It means that from a quintal of olives, you get 6-8 liters of oil instead of 17-18. The sector is suffering throughout the Mediterranean, either from too much drought or on the contrary from too much rain.
Despite this, from our 272 olive trees this year we have harvested over 40 quintals of olives, and just in these days we have finished the milling. The Oil is good, and we are preparing to get to bottling, so that you can taste and buy it at the Borgo from the next reopening in spring

Our Doc and Igt Le Tende Wines
You are invited to join us in Colà di Lazise in November and December for a unique experience. You can immerse yourself in the heart of our cellar, breathe the pure air of the vineyards and, of course, taste our organic wines, the result of artisanal work that respects the land.
The tasting, accompanied by breadsticks, begins with our white wines, fresh and fruity such as Custoza and Sabia Bianco with a more mineral tone, and then moves on to the delicate notes of our rosés with hints of small red fruits and dog rose Chiaretto and Voluttà. The Bardolino Classico, with its characteristic peppery and vegetal fruit, demonstrates more intense aromas and hints of cherry, while the Bardolino Superiore highlights the sweet spiciness of the ripe fruit. We will then move on to our Sabia Rosso wine, from Corvina and Merlot vines, and then conclude with the wine with the most international spirit of our production: Cicisbeo.
Visits and tastings are available upon reservation.

Why choose an organic Le Tende wine?
Because every sip is a gesture of love towards nature and towards your health. Our wines are produced with full respect for the environment, without the use of synthetic chemicals. The result? Authentic wines, with a unique and unmistakable flavor.
