  • Those who want to experience more than a bottle of bubbly and want to know more about their favorite wine cannot find a better destination than the “Strada del Prosecco.” This is a landscape like no other: steep hills alternate with gentle slopes, covered in a never ending patchwork of vineyards.

In short, the best of the Italian cultural riches not only survive, but thrive.
