Food scene

UNESCO World Heritage Site For centuries, this rugged terrain has been shaped and adapted by man. Since the 17th century, the use of authentic unique viticulture techniques has created a particular chequerboard landscape consisting of rows of vines parallel and vertical to the slopes. All this, enjoyable sipping a glass of Prosecco, Valdobbiadene or Conegliano wine. Cheers!!
