Cavalchina
It is on the southeast border of the Garda amphitheater, dating back to the end of the Ice Age. This area has long been recognized as a vine growing district: in 1848 the vineyards were registered and classified by the ruling Hapsburg authorities as belonging to the first and second quality categories.
This was based not only on quality but also on consistency of good production, essentially due to the capacity of the soil to stay moist during hot seasons. Cavalchina doesn’t only have rich wine history but also has historical importance as it was at the center of the Italian Independence War I and III. As a memory of the 1866 battle, there is a brown slate obelisk right at the entrance of Cavalchina estate which commemorates the Prince Amedeo di Savoia who was wounded during the battle.
