Garibaldi

The 'Sparkling Wine Capital of Brazil,' preserving old Italian immigrant streets and a railway station, and home to sparkling wine producers and the wine festival.

Garibaldi lies about 12 km south of Bento Gonçalves and is a stop on the steam train line. It is known as Brazil's sparkling wine capital, and several sparkling wine producers, including Perini and the Garibaldi Cooperative, are open to visitors. In the city center, Rua Buarque de Macedo preserves a group of late-19th-century Italian immigrant buildings and an old railway station. Every autumn, the Fenachamp sparkling wine festival is held here. It makes a good half-day trip, whether you ride the steam train or drive there separately.
