The charm of the Lake Garda area in summer is infused with its Mediterranean climate — keep your ears open for the natural soundtrack of cicadas chirping in the heat, almost in the shadow of the Alps.  Villa Cordevigo is a gorgeous Renaissance property with organic vineyards and olive groves set on a unique wine estate close to romantic Verona, offering relaxing spa treatments with exclusive Vinoble grape and wine-based products in a dreamy setting.  Mediterranean flavours from the Michelin-star awarded kitchens rely on the skill of chef Marco Marras and the best of sustainably sourced local ingredients, bringing together gourmet creativity and mouthwatering local specialties.  Enjoy cooking classes with Nonna Antonia in her welcoming kitchen, hitting the fitness trail, or taking walks and bike rides around the wine estate.  Offsite, spend your days visiting other prestigious wineries on the rolling Valpolicella hills, taking in an Opera at the Arena di Verona or even cruising on the lake with your own private boat.
