By the 16th century, 25 hectares had been leased for the cultivation of vineyards and fruit trees, a legacy you can still see documented today in Vienna’s historic library.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eToday, Monte del Frà is a renowned family-owned Italian winery near Lake Garda, passionately run by the Bonomo family for over 60 years. Now in its third generation, Marica, Silvia, and Massimo Bonomo are dedicated to producing high-quality wines that reflect both tradition and terroir.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNestled between the Venetian Pre-Alps and the shores of Lake Garda, Monte del Frà benefits from a unique microclimate. The nearby mountains shield the vineyards from harsh northern winds, while the lake moderates extreme seasonal temperatures, ideal conditions for growing premium grapes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat truly sets Monte del Frà apart is its commitment to sustainable vineyard practices in Northern Italy. The estate spans rolling morainic hills formed by ancient glaciers, creating the perfect environment for cultivating indigenous grape varieties that define the character of each handcrafted wine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhether you are looking for artisan Italian wines from a sustainable winery or want to explore the taste of Lake Garda's family-run vineyards, Monte del Frà offers a legacy in every bottle.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Divine Fine Wines","offers":[{"title":"75cl \/ Tax Included","offer_id":51631252341079,"sku":null,"price":14.25,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"6x75cl Case \/ Tax Included","offer_id":51631252373847,"sku":null,"price":85.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0929\/5334\/6391\/files\/Monte-del-Fra-Custoza-2023.jpg?v=1757754380","url":"https:\/\/divinefinewines.co.uk\/products\/monte-del-fra-custoza","provider":"Divine Fine Wines","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
