The story
In the small town of Isera, just south of Rovereto, Casa del Vino della Vallagarina is both a wine bar and a restaurant born from a cooperative of local producers. The space, on Piazza San Vincenzo, brings together over thirty winegrowers, distilleries, and farms from the surrounding valleys. The ethos is simple: let the territory speak through the glass and on the plate.
The restaurant has earned a Michelin Bib Gourmand for 2026, a recognition of good quality, good value cooking. The menu follows the rhythm of the seasons – the cuisine is seasonal, drawing on the produce of the Trentino region. Dishes change frequently, and special evenings like “Fish and More” with the producer highlight the direct link between the kitchen and the land. The wine list, naturally, is a deep exploration of local labels, many of which are not found elsewhere.
The setting is welcoming and unpretentious: a historic building with outdoor seating in the piazza, a well-stocked enoteca (wine shop) where guests can buy bottles to take home, and even a few rooms for overnight stays. Breakfast is served gourmet-style, and the restaurant is open for lunch and dinner. The gallery on their site shows images of the restaurant, the dishes, the rooms, and the producers – a visual testament to the collaborative spirit that defines the place.
Casa del Vino della Vallagarina is not about flashy trends. It is a place to taste the Vallagarina valley, one glass and one plate at a time, with the confidence of a Bib Gourmand behind it.
