The strong relationship between the Avanzi family and their land led to the creation of the family business in 1931. This tradition all began when the founder, Giovanni Avanzi, obtained an excellent red wine from the grapes of the region of Lake Garda and the tradition has continued with his sons, Gianpietro and Alessandro. Today, the sons and grandchildren are keeping the tradition alive with the same passionate spirit, devotion, loving care and quality that have become synonymous with the name Avanzi.

For over eighty years we have been producing wines utilizing the highest quality grapes, grown here in the region of Lake Garda where we have more than 138 acres of vineyards and olive groves. Our proven passion for Garda and Lugana Wines has inspired us, generation after generation, to continuously seek improvement in all aspects of wine quality and wine production. In the family winery, the Avanzi family produces the most prestigious Garda wines, Lugana wines and sparkling wines. In the family oil-mill, with the same care and precision, we produce an outstanding and exquisite Garda DOP extra virgin olive oil. We sustain the richness of our land and the quality of our vineyards and its grapes with continuous renewal, combining almost a century of tradition, experience and know how. Read more
