Warda Garda, the oil festival is back

WardaGarda is back: the DOP Oil Festival is preparing to celebrate its second edition at Cavaion Veronese on June 17 and 18, 2017. The two days are promoted by the Consortium Olio Garda DOP with the organization of the Pro Loco di Cavaion Veronese, and are dedicated to all enthusiasts who want to get closer to the world of quality oil. The event is at Corte Torcolo, also home to the Consorzio di Tutela, at the heart of the Garda DOP production among the olive groves of the Gardesan hinterland. The program includes events with laboratories to learn how to taste and combine oil, showcooking, dinners, art exhibitions, local cuisine and live music. There will be a space with a food and wine market where you can buy and know local products and certified DOP and IGP products from the regional territory.
