Looking for an unforgettable aperitif in the province of Verona? Then come to one of the events organised by the Rocca Sveva winery, which has planned three social events for the summer of 2023 on the hill overlooking the historic centre of Soave *, recently named “borgo dei borghi”, the best village of Italy. As well as wine, themed events, exquisite finger food and energetic DJ sets, the main attraction is the stunning views and breathtaking sunsets over the crenellated walls of the medieval village located in the east of Verona. There are also relaxation areas with blankets and pillows among the vineyards.


On Wednesday 14 June, the aperitif was called ‘Jungle’, with a décor aimed at creating a ‘wild’ atmosphere, with exotic decorations, leaves and flowers, and colours typical of the tropical environment – green, brown, yellow, orange and red. The wine chosen for the occasion was Rocca Sveva’s “Chiaropuro”, a blend of precious white grapes from the Veronese hills.


The third and final event, on Wednesday 5 July, will feature the Cantina di Montecchia’s finest sparkling wine, the “Colli Neri” Lessini Durello DOC Riserva Metodo Classico, a sparkling wine of volcanic origin whose name pays homage to its territory of origin. For the occasion, the theme of the event will be an elegant ‘Black & White‘.

“We are delighted to be able to once again propose the aperitif, an initiative that has helped us to achieve excellent results over the years, also among young people“, says Wolfgang Raifer, General Manager of Cadis 1898, “Borgo Rocca Sveva is our oenocultural and tourist centre of excellence, the perfect place for lovers of good wine to appreciate the great variety of our production. Each aperitif boasts important collaborations and partnerships with establishments and companies from different sectors that share the quality, values and style of Borgo Rocca Sveva: Frau calzature, Agenzia assicurativa Generali Tosetti and Porsche are just some of the partners for the 2023 season“.
