PROSECCO HILLS
WINE AREA
Golden light, green hills of vineyards, sounds of bell towers and the rustling of vines on the terraces. In your hand a glass of wine and in your heart the magic of a unique territory proclaimed World Heritage Site.
Prosecco Wine Area, a unique cultural landscape
Sunny hills, beautiful in every season. A charming location, where the renowned Prosecco is produced. The winegrowing landscape of Le Colline del Prosecco di Conegliano Valdobbiadene was inscribed on the UNESCO’s World Heritage List in 2019.
It has been registered under the category of “cultural landscape”, since its mosaic appearance is the result of the interaction between humankind and its natural environment. The unique climate, the soil characteristics and the winemakers’ hand-crafted work made this region ideal for growing vines. It is characterised by steep ridges whose slopes vineyards, planted on narrow grassy terraces, cover almost completely. Winemakers have been cultivating grapes in this area for centuries, producing Prosecco: a white wine with fruity and floral fragrances, characterised by a bright straw yellow colour and a smooth and elegant taste.
“A man who drinks only water has a secret to hide.”
– Charles Baudelaire
Prosecco Hills, a landscape to discover
Ancient mills, noble villas, castles, cellars, shrines, Cistercian abbeys and cloisters. In this land of poets and painters, the architectural variety is matched only by that of landscapes.
Hills, lakes, streams and rivers. A territory to be discover on foot or by bike, along enchanted paths, or on a Vespa moter scooter like a true Italian.
Wonderful woods alternate with vineyards, but also with olive groves and centenary chestnut trees. And it is sweet to indulge in the pleasure of the palate, along itineraries with a strong link to traditions and history.

Prosecco Hills, the hidden wonders
Those who visit the Prosecco Hills of Conegliano and Valdobbiadene will discover a wonderful territory.
Who would think of visiting a late Roman necropolis? But little wonder, since the remains of a mammoth were also found here. This is an amazing land. And there is also the opportunity to walk on the street of Murals or stop at the bonsai museum.
The opportunities are just countless.
Prosecco Hills, the flavours
Strong or delicate flavours, always from the local tradition.
The ever present “polenta” is served by a wide selection of delicious cheeses such as “Formaio embriago“. The “sopressa“,Italian aged salami, is the undisputed queen of every snack, cutting board and meal.
The local wine production is the central element of the gastronomic experience of the territory but the combination of wines with the dishes of the Venetian tradition makes the experience extraordinary. Not to miss: a visit to the vineyards and wine tastings in the cellars. As well as a break on the open air terraces of osterie and restaurants with dream views of the World Heritage Site Hills.
