Late Summer Cruises, Autumn Tastings, and a Dialogue Between Slow Luxury and French Savoir-faire
August 18, 2025- Cape of Senses x Champagne Palmer Summer Experiences
The final stretch of summer on Lake Garda takes on a sparkling edge this year. Cape of Senses, the new wellness hideaway above Torri del Benaco, has partnered with Champagne Palmer, the maison from Reims celebrated for its refined cuvées. Together, they’ve shaped a series of experiences pairing champagne culture with the art of Italian hospitality.
It begins on the water, with boat tours that capture the magic of the lake at golden hour, and continues into autumn with intimate dinners and curated tastings. A collaboration that stretches beyond a single season, it invites you to rediscover the lake through bubbles, music, and time well spent.
Boat and Bubbles: Discover the Lake from a New Perspective
Few experiences capture late summer better than a champagne cruise. Boat and Bubbles offers a private two-hour journey aboard the Belriva, an icon of Italian nautical design. The route includes the most scenic parts of the eastern shore, such as Punta San Vigilio, a landmark of charm and quiet elegance.
Onboard, Palmer cuvées are served in crystal glasses while the lake unfolds in changing light. The sound of the waves, the gentle wind, and the silhouette of the mountains create a living panorama. Champagne and landscape come together in perfect rhythm. It is both celebration and contemplation, a ritual that defines late summer on Lake Garda.
Fall Evenings: Champagne Dinners and Tastings
The collaboration continues into the fall with a series of culinary evenings. Guest chefs design menus inspired by Palmer’s signature style and pair local ingredients from the Garda region with long-aged champagnes. Your dinner becomes a dialogue between food and wine, where refinement transforms into storytelling.
These evenings invite you to explore Palmer’s heritage in Reims, discover how Grand and Premier Cru vineyards blend together, and experience how time shapes flavor. The program turns fall into a season of taste and connection, where every dinner feels like a celebrated journey.
At the same time, the partnership reflects a vision of luxury built on restraint and time. Cape of Senses, designed by DemetzArch, rises like a terrace suspended between water and sky. Every suite faces the lake, blending architecture with nature. Palmer, rooted in the Montagne de Reims, crafts champagnes that embody finesse, complexity, and patience through years of aging on lees.
Together, they create a philosophy where stillness holds value and silence has meaning. Guests live this vision through curated experiences, intimate spaces, and refined tastes. In the end, the collaboration offers a form of luxury that feels both modern and timeless.
