About Zenato.

Veneto (Lugana + Valpolicella Classica) + Bolgheri ·Est. 1960

Zenato was founded in 1960 by Sergio Zenato and his wife Carla in San Benedetto di Lugana on the southern shores of Lake Garda. Sergio Zenato was a pioneer for the Lugana DOC and championed the Turbiana (Trebbiano di Lugana) grape long before it earned international recognition. The estate now spans 95 hectares across Lugana and Valpolicella Classica, plus a small Bolgheri parcel. Second-generation Nadia (sales and marketing) and Alberto (production) Zenato now run the operation.

Bottle questions

Before you open it.

A few practical answers for storage, delivery, and choosing the right bottle.

How should I store it before opening?

Keep it somewhere cool, dark, and steady. Wine prefers cellar temperature; spirits are happier away from heat and direct sunlight.

How long will it keep once opened?

Wine changes quickly after opening; spirits and liqueurs generally hold longer if capped tightly and kept out of heat. If it is a special bottle, ask before opening and the team can give product-specific guidance.

Can I ask for a similar bottle?

Yes. Contact Caravan with this bottle name and the occasion; the team can suggest a close match, a safer gift, or a step up or down in price.

How is it packed for delivery?

Orders are packed in bottle-safe cartons. If anything arrives damaged or looks wrong, contact the team with your order number and a photo so they can sort the next step.

What about hot weather shipping?

The team avoids making one-size-fits-all promises around heat and carrier timing. For heat-sensitive or cellar bottles, contact Caravan before ordering and they can advise the safest dispatch window.

Why Caravan backs Zenato

Veneto (Lugana + Valpolicella Classica) + Bolgheri

Sergio Zenato founded the eponymous winery in 1960 in San Benedetto di Lugana, on the southern banks of Lake Garda — at the time an unfashionable corner of the Veneto for serious quality winemaking. Sergio's strategic call was to focus on Turbiana, the local name for Trebbiano di Lugana, a grape that the broader Italian wine trade had largely written off as a workhorse white. He championed Lugana DOC across the 1970s and 1980s, building the regional designation alongside the wine. The Zenato family now sits in the Famiglie Storiche association, the consortium of historic Amarone producers.

The estate has expanded across two adjacent regions: 95 hectares now divided between the Lugana base on Lake Garda's southern shore and Valpolicella Classica (the historic centre of Amarone production in the Veronese hills), plus a small 3.8-hectare parcel in Bolgheri on the Tuscan coast. The Lugana whites are the house's defining wine type — Lugana Riserva and the Sergio Zenato Riserva are among the longest-cellaring expressions of the variety. The Amarone della Valpolicella Classico Sergio Zenato Riserva and the Ripassa Valpolicella Superiore are the headline reds; the Ripassa technique (re-fermenting Valpolicella over Amarone pomace) was popularised partly by Zenato in the 1980s.
