Our Farm

A place where guests can walk, taste and purchase quality products

Since 2005, the Garda Natura Farm has been taking advantage of the exceptional climate of Lake Garda to cultivate vines, olive groves and other fruit trees.

In fact, the hill where the farm is located is full of olive trees planted according to the strict PDO requirements for its olive oil to offer buyers a high quality product.
We also produce a renowned Bardolino wine, in the Bardolino D.O.C. and Chiaretto D.O.C. versions.

Here you will have the opportunity to spend a few hours in the quiet of Marciaga, walking surrounded by nature among the various “islands” such as the Isola dei ciliegi, Isola della vite and Isola dell’orto [Island of the cherry trees, Island of the vineyard, and Island of the vegetable garden – Ed.] and finally reach the Isola del Ristoro Farm where you can taste the goodness of the Farm produce.

Isola del Vigneto

4000 square metres of vineyard plantation in a well-ventilated hilly area that enjoys an excellent south-west exposure. The vines consist of Corvina, Corvinone, Rondinella, Molinara perfect for the production of Bardolino wine with small additions of Merlot and Sangiovese grapes.

Isola dell'Uliveto

Our olive trees, more than a thousand plants, are also located on the hills, on scenic long and narrow terraces. The olive harvest is made by hand.
Our cultivation consists of 65% Casaliva and Frantoio trees, and the remaining 35% of Leccio, Leccino and Pendolino trees, some of which are PDO Certified Garda.

Isola dell'Orto

2000 square metres of vegetable garden cultivated with love and skills by Ivana and Giovanni. The produce from the vegetable garden is used to prepare the dishes offered at Isola del Ristoro.

Isola dei Ciliegi

The hundred cherry trees provide a unique visual show during the blossoming period in April, which in June turns into a tasting show.
The cherries are harvested throughout the month and our guests also have the exciting opportunity to take part in this.

Isola del Pollaio

Our hens, watched over by their cockerel, scratch the ground in search of natural food and thus provide intensely tasty eggs every day.

Isola della Cantina

Our small wine cellar turns the grapes, harvested in autumn, into the delicious Bardolino DOC wine.
First of all, we make Chiaretto DOC wine. The skins of the crushed grapes remain with the must for only a few hours to give it its characteristic pink colour.
Then the Bardolino DOC is made. In this case, the grapes macerate over the Chiaretto marc for a few days, giving the wine its typical ruby red colour.
With the remaining DOC grapes, we produce a sparkling Organic Rosè wine that is placed in autoclave with the addition of carbon dioxide to make it bubbly. The result is a light and fruity sparkling wine.
The marc, just slightly pressed, is then delivered to the distillery to obtain a wonderful grappa with 40% of alcohol content by volume.
