Poggio delle Grazie

Poggio delle Grazie was founded a few steps from Lake Garda — a region long renowned for the production of white, red, and rosé wines.

The winery is located at the meeting point of two important appellations of origin in the region: DOC Bardolino and DOC Custoza. Access to a wide variety of indigenous grapes, both white and red, has allowed them to unleash their creativity and produce a diverse portfolio, which includes Quadrivium, a single-varietal made with the Corvina grape, or an Orange wine from Pinot Grigio.

In the heart of the vineyards stands a small church, built in 1947, which inspired both the name and logo of the winery. A magical place that holds many stories and is worth a visit.

Sustainability

Sustainability is an essential component of Poggio delle Grazie's project, which has obtained organic certification.

It is a daily effort to protect the environment they cultivate with such care and passion — a landscape dominated by shades of green and blue. Vegetation is alternately mowed between rows to encourage the presence of pollinating insects, while ensuring they do not interfere with the vines or grapes. Soil management under the vine rows is carried out mechanically, completely eliminating the use of chemical herbicides. Through constant monitoring of insects and diseases, Poggio delle Grazie ensures that the grapes destined for their wines remain healthy and in perfect condition. Biodiversity is fostered by the presence and cultivation of indigenous grape varieties, along with olive trees and other local flora. This creates a perfectly balanced ecosystem.

To preserve a precious resource like water, they use a drip irrigation system in their vineyards. This is the most precise method to minimize water waste; furthermore, it allows the vines to be kept under controlled water stress, which contributes to the production of high-quality grapes.
