Colli Berici

Just a short drive from Vicenza, the Colli Berici offers a landscape of rolling hills and lush vineyards. The area is famed for its full-bodied yet well-balanced red wines, such as Tai Rosso, a local grape variety that produces ruby-red wines with fruity and spicy aromas.

A tour of this wine region is a great way to visit historic wineries and sample Tai Rosso alongside other excellent local varieties like Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon.

One of the most famous wineries in the area is Cantina Pegoraro, housed in an ancient monastery. Here, in addition to tastings, you’ll have the chance to learn about traditional winemaking techniques as well as the latest innovations. For an added cultural touch, Villa La Rotonda, a masterpiece by Andrea Palladio, is also nearby and well worth a visit.

 

Colli Euganei

Head further south and you’ll reach the Colli Euganei, another unmissable destination for wine enthusiasts. This volcanic region is famous for its aromatic, fresh white wines, like the Fior d’Arancio DOCG, a Moscato Giallo known for its intoxicating fragrance and sweet, enveloping taste. The Colli Euganei also produces rich red wines, such as Cabernet Franc and Serprino.

One of the most popular wineries here is Vignalta, where you can enjoy guided tours and tastings in a stunning setting. After a morning of tastings, unwind in the thermal waters of Abano and Montegrotto Terme, just a short drive away.

 

Valdobbiadene

If you can't resist a glass of sparkling wine, Valdobbiadene is the place for you. This is the heart of Prosecco Superiore DOCG, one of the world’s most celebrated sparkling wines. The terraced vineyards that stripe the hilly landscape are part of a UNESCO World Heritage site, and the views are breathtaking.

Don’t miss a visit to Cantina Bisol, one of the most prestigious wineries in the area. Here, you can taste different varieties of Prosecco Superiore and discover the unique qualities of each label. Along the way, you’ll also pass through charming villages like Conegliano and Asolo, where a glass of Prosecco paired with local cuisine is an absolute must.
