In the last post, we discussed the history and characteristics of Prosecco, trying to provide a greater base of information on the famous beverage that is both affordable and tasty. It is something that many of us consume on a regular basis without thinking on too deeply but, like any other wine, there is a lot more to learn about it and the best way is to visit a vineyard and taste some delicious wines for yourself! Just find a vacation rental in Friuli Venezia Giulia or a luxury villa in Veneto and then plan a trip to one of these incredible vineyards so you can get to trying some amazing wines.
1. Azienda Agricola Vettori
Azienda Agricola Vettori is a vineyard run by Arturo Vettori and produces two types of Prosecco and two kinds of white wine. Located in a sunny valley around 8km from the town of Conegliano in Veneto. It is a beautiful and historic estate that was re-established by the Vettori family in 1990 and its methods, grapes and wines were greatly increased at this time.

If you are visiting the estate, there are two Proseccos to check out. Conegliano Valdobbiadene Prosecco Superiore DOCG Brut is an elegant, well-balanced and dry wine that is made of 100% glera grapes and has apple overtones and wisteria and acacia flower fragrances. The other wine is Conegliano Valdobbiadene Prosecco Superiore DOCG Extra Dry, a similar but more rounded variety. To organise a visit and try them for yourself, just contact the estate. There are English speakers at the company so it should be easy enough to arrange!
