Along the Marzemino wine route
Cycling through the vineyards of the "excellent Marzemino" praised by Mozart in his "Don Giovanni" opera.
The path starts in Borgo Sacco and winds from Isera through the countryside to reach the Sanctuary of Montalbano, a splendid panoramic terrace over the town of Mori. <p>Thanks to the presence of a basalt matrix soilt, Marzemino is the indigenous grape par excellence in Vallagarina. The areas where it can be found are in the Ziresi in Volano and in the municipality of Isera. The resulting wine is not particularly structured, but still retains a certain finesse and elegance, such as to make it known under the name of "Gentle Marzemino". Obtained from medium-large berry grapes rich in anthocyanins, it has an intense color tending to purple and gives, both to the nose and to the palate, an intense aroma of violet.</p>
