We will explore the true soul of this territory through its icons: the mineral elegance of Soave’s volcanic soils, the savoury freshness of whites, and the monumental structure of the Valpolicella reds, where time seems to stand still among the vines.
Owen, will curate the culinary side with a selection of bespoke cicchetti. Each bite is a piece of Venetian tradition, meticulously designed to let the character of these extraordinary wines shine.
History, craftsmanship, and a bold, vibrant spirit. Discover why Veneto has been the beating heart of Italian wine for centuries.
