Valentine's Day on Lake Garda: the launch of the new Rosé Micaela, tastings, experiences, and romantic weekends
February is the month of heartwarming gestures, simple yet meaningful.
On Lake Garda, special effects aren't necessary: just a softer light on the Valtènesi hills, the tranquility among the winter vines, a shared glass of our artisanal wine, and the desire to stop, even if just for a weekend.
Here, among the vineyards of Valtènesi , February is all about slow walks, clean air, and toasts that become promises. It's the ideal time for those seeking a Valentine's Day on Lake Garda away from the hustle and bustle, more intimate, more authentic. A suspended time to rediscover the pleasure of being together, without rushing.

The Conti Thun Wine Resort reopens on February 13th , just in time to welcome those who want to experience a romantic weekend on Lake Garda in an authentic way: nature, wine, wellness and attention to detail.

It is the time when an entire year's work finally finds its voice in the glass: the release of the new vintage of Rosé Valtènesi Micaela 2025 .
A wine that isn't just a new label, but the culmination of twelve months of work in the vineyard and cellar, of careful selections, and measured gestures. A fresh, elegant rosé, as luminous as the lake on clear days, it expresses the Valtènesi in its most authentic balance.

Wine and Territory: February's Tastings and Valtenesi Rosé
February is also the ideal time to approach wine more deeply.
Tastings for couples become opportunities to listen and share stories, when the land becomes quieter and every detail emerges more clearly.
This season's star is the Rosé Valtenesi Micaela 2025 : a wine that evokes freshness, elegance, and the transition to spring. Perfect for a guided tasting, to accompany a dinner at a restaurant , or simply to toast a new beginning.
Among the most popular options is the Rosé Wine Tour , a roughly 90-minute journey that explores our farming and production processes. The tour includes the new winery, the historic 16th-century barrel cellar, and the Wine Theater , where a visual narrative introduces our values and history.
The tour concludes with a guided tasting of three rosé wines , including Rosé Micaela , accompanied by select appetizers. It's an opportunity to understand the different expressions of rosé in Valtènesi and be guided by the region's history.
Rosé Micaela 2025: the soul of Valtènesi in a glass
February 14th is n't just Valentine's Day : for us, it's also the day that marks the official release of the new vintage of Rosé Valtènesi Micaela 2025.
“ Micaela” is our first and rigorous interpretation of a wine that authentically represents this territory.
It's made from a blend of native grapes— Groppello, Barbera, Sangiovese, and Marzemino —processed using the soft-pressing method , with just a few hours of contact between the must and the skins. It's precisely this delicate process that gives rise to its luminous, rose-petal-like color and its fresh, elegant character.
The 2025 Rosé Micaela builds on the legacy of previous vintages, which have already received critical acclaim and accolades from leading wine guides. Past vintages have received important accolades such as Gambero Rosso's 2 Bicchieri, the WineHunter Award Rosso , and top scores from Falstaff and ONAV. This journey showcases the stylistic consistency of a rosé that grows year after year, remaining true to its identity.
On the nose, Micaela expresses delicate aromas of rose petals, small berries, and citrus, with notes of crisp peach and a refined, slightly almondy finish. On the palate, it is fresh, savory, and balanced, with a natural drinkability that makes it perfect both as an aperitif and for a shared dinner.
A rosé wine from Lake Garda created to accompany the most beautiful moments, especially those that need no planning.
At this time of year, Lake Garda doesn't ask us to do more, but to choose better. To stop. To share. To give ourselves time.
January inspires, February welcomes.
And often, the most beautiful experiences begin just like this:
when time is finally on your side.
