Vignalta Winery is beautifully situated among the picturesque hills of the Veneto region. Known for its exceptional sparkling, red, and white wines, this estate is surrounded by historic castles, charming churches, and stunning villas. The name Vignalta translates to "high vines," making it an ideal destination for history buffs, wine lovers, and outdoor enthusiasts. Today, Vignalta stands as the largest producer of Colli Euganei DOC and Fior D’arancio DOCG wines, showcasing the rich viticultural heritage of the area.
Founded in 1980 by Lucio Gomiero, Vignalta Winery has its roots in a passion for Bordeaux wines. Initially an architect and the largest radicchio grower in the region, Lucio began his winemaking career as a hobbyist. What started as a fun project with eight acres of vineyards blossomed into a thriving winery, producing 20,000 cases of wine annually. Lucio refers to himself as an "accidental winemaker," but his dedication and hard work have made Vignalta a respected name in the wine industry.
Vignalta Winery spans 120 acres of vineyards, primarily cultivating Bordeaux varietals. Alongside the flagship Gemola, Lucio grows premium Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Merlot, Carmenere, Manzoni Bianco, and Chardonnay. The estate also features plots dedicated to Moscato Bianco, Moscato Giallo, Pinot Grigio, Syrah, Friularo di Bagnoli, and Sauvignon. Visitors can appreciate the meticulous care that goes into each bottle and savor the unique flavors of Vignalta's wines.

Write a reviewTour of the winery with tastings of red, white, and passito wines. I recommend arriving with a full stomach, as no plates are served, and after all those glasses, the alcohol will start to set in. Incidentally, I'd say €25 per person is a good price. Beautiful views of the hills from the tasting room.

Visit to the winery with tasting, well-kept location and the tasting room overlooks the Euganean hills. I found some interesting wines but the price of €25, definitely exaggerated.

We stopped by this wonderful place on our way from Venice to Bologna. We were primarily there to buy a few bottles of their sweet wine, and without any appointment or tour booked, the very kind and professional Michele still offered us a tasting of whatever wines we liked to try, and also showed us parts of the winery. We'll be coming back here to do the full tour. Thanks again!

Great wines, both white and red. A sensationally friendly employee who told us a lot about the different wines, how they are grown and the philosophy behind them during the tasting. Definitely worth a visit!

Beautifully located winery with friendly and competent service. Although we only wanted to buy wine, we were offered a tour of the beautiful wine cellar. Excellent wines, a visit is highly recommended.
