Wine tasting and tour at Cantina Spada
Enjoy the tour around the vineyards and cellars, and learn the many steps of winemaking while sampling local wine paired with regional delicacies
Standing in the heart of Valpolicella, in the San Pietro Region, the Cantina Spada Winery is a result of the passion and dedication of the Spada family towards vines and wines. Francesco Spada, the current owner of the winery, is following his father’s footsteps and produces many award-winning wines, within the Valpolicella DOC and Verona IGT regions.
The tale of the Spada winemaking family began in 1910 by Francesco’s great-grandfather, Giuseppe. Over the years, Francesco’s father, Renzo, refined and perfected all the wine production processes and gave the winery a new shape. Even today, at the age of 81, Renzo actively take part in many phases of vine cultivation. Named after Renzo’s nickname – El Cencio, under Rosso Verona IGT status, has won many awards because of its exceptional taste. Furthermore, the vineyards of Cantina Spada are extended over a land of ten hectares, positioned in the central part of Valpolicella Classica, in Cariano. With care and attention in the vineyards and the utmost respect to the ecosystem of the region, Francesco grows several high-quality grape varieties.
It includes Garganega, Corvina, and Corvinone, in combination with rich-quality Molinara, Rondinella, Cabernet, and Merlot. The wines of Valpolicella DOC owe their unique tastes and aromas to the territory of Valpolicella particularly suitable for the cultivation of grapes. Some of the delicious wine categories of the estate are red, white, and dessert wines. To protect the authenticity and quality of the wines, the owner traditionally carries out all the wine production processes in the cellar. For the refinement and aging of wines, the cellar consists of top-quality oak barrels.

We started our wine tours here for the day. What a great start - Francisco was most awesome! Thank you for a truly lovely beginning. At the end of the day, this was still a highlight for us. Loved the wines, winery, and of course our guide. Thank you!!!
Dear Tamara and company, it was a real pleasure for me to meet you! A bug hug! Francesco
The wine tasting was simply perfect. We found the place easily. Camilla - who was our guide - spoke very good English and she was so knowledgeable and nice. The wine was very good, the aperitif that came along with the wine was very tasty. My friend whose birthday gift was this trip said that she was very happy. Hence our goal was met! Thank you for helping us finding this winery. We’ll try others too.
