Maeli - A Gem in the Euganean Hills of Veneto, Italy

Located in the picturesque region of Veneto, Italy, Maeli Winery specializes in cultivating native grape varieties from the Euganean Hills. The winery's signature grape is the Fior D’Arancio, known locally as Yellow Muscat. From this unique grape, Maeli produces five distinct wines: the sweet sparkling Fior D’Arancio, the dry still Bianco Infinito, the raisin wine Diloro, the classic method sparkling Dilà, and the ancestral method Dilì.

Rich Biodiversity and Scenic Views

All wines at Maeli are crafted exclusively from 100% Yellow Muscat grapes. The vineyards are primarily located on Monte Pirio within the Euganean Hills National Park, offering breathtaking views of both the Venetian lagoon and the Dolomites. The area is rich in biodiversity, featuring holly oaks, strawberry trees, broom trees, prickly pears, dog rose shrubs, and wild blackberries, creating a vibrant ecosystem that enhances the wine's character.

Unique Terroir for Exceptional Wines

The hallmark of Maeli wines is the distinctive salty-mineral profile derived from the ancient volcanic soil.

This unique terroir consists of layers of marl and silt, with vineyards planted on trachytic soil dedicated to red grape varieties such as Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Carmenere. The winery's commitment to its territory is evident in every bottle, as the diverse landscape, steep hills, varying vineyard aspects, and micro-climate contribute to the wines' complexity. The presence of fruit and olive trees further enriches the natural environment, allowing Maeli to express its unique identity through its exceptional wines.

Outstanding wines in a lesser known region of Italy. Maeli is well worth a detour to try their interpretation of Yellow Muscat and the top-notch red blend. This place is going to expand and become increasingly popular. June and September might be best times to visit but if you're in the area or can add to your route, don't miss out.

Thanks to the purchase of an experience for my best friend's birthday, I had the opportunity to meet Elisa. Elisa was incredible in explaining and presenting the products. The exceptional wine. We can't wait to return as soon as possible. I recommend it to everyone!

We did the "yellow, rose, red" tasting experience with food and wine pairing. The tasting room enjoys a beautiful panoramic view and is tastefully furnished. The products tasted are all local and combined with the winery's wines evoke beautiful memories of times gone by. Special praise deserves Elisa, who with her professionalism was able to describe in a simple way the excellence of the wines tasted.

Beautiful experience. Discovering mystical wines and vineyards. Tasting an orange blossom (muscatel wine) that goes very well with many variations of food as there are many flavor variations 👅 that you can discover inside the glass. Reserva de Rosados ​​y Tintos rich in culture and secrets of the biodynamic land to which they belong. The owner, a pleasant company, very attentive to the attention to detail and the descriptions that immerse you in an oenological journey that you will never want to give up. I highly recommend both the classic tasting and the team building tasting that they offer in an escape room version.

Pampered by the wonderful Elisa and Elena, we were accompanied on a fantastic journey to discover the yellow Moscato. It all started with a visit to the vineyard with a tasting on site. After moving to the cellar, the tasting of the muscat and red wines continued, all accompanied by excellent food. I think one of the most beautiful experiences I have had in many wineries I have visited. I can only thank the hosts once again for the fantastic day I spent with them and I highly recommend this experience to everyone.
