Located in the central part of the municipality of Valdobbiadene, it owes its fame to its special geographical position within the valley in which it lies, protected to the north by the mountains and to the south by the crown of hills that separate it from the Quartier del Piave. This determines a special microclimate that, combined with the orogenesis of its hills resulting from the meeting of Dolomite rock from the Piave glacier with sandstone from the sea bed, enhances the organoleptic qualities of its wines characterized by graceful and persistent marine fragrances.
Because here once was the sea.
