The Prosecco Hills of northern Italy are one of the country’s most beautiful wine regions, with rolling vineyard landscapes, historic villages, and a deep connection between wine, culture, and everyday life. In this episode, we head into the heart of Veneto to explore what makes this area so special, from the hills between Conegliano and Valdobbiadene to charming towns like Treviso that make a perfect base for exploring the region.
Host Katy Clarke is joined by Chantelle and Giovanni from The Italian on Tour, we dive into the traditions behind prosecco production, how the region earned its UNESCO World Heritage status, and what visitors should know before planning a trip. Along the way, we share stories of unique local experiences, including an osteria with no staff, prosecco vending machines, rose prosecco, grappa tastings, and the festivals that bring these wine-loving communities together.
If you are dreaming of a trip beyond Venice, love Italian wine, or want to experience a slower, more local side of Italy, this episode will give you plenty of inspiration for exploring the Prosecco Hills in a meaningful and memorable way.
Recorded: June 2021 with Katy Clarke and Chantelle and Giovanni from The Italian on Tour
