The story goes that there was a young girl whose strong character earned her the name Sansonina after the biblical character Samson. Three hundred years ago she owned this enchanting place, now an estate with a very powerful bond with the earth and fantasy. Sansonina lies in the southern moraines of Lake Garda, a beautiful countryside famed for its Lugana wine tradition, producing the only red in a white region.
