Already in the 7th century B.C., thanks to the Etruscan civilization, wine was considered like gold in Veneto.During the Roman period the cultivation of vines and production of wine started to grow tremendously.A wine that was produced at the time, and is still in commerce today, is Retico.
All over Veneto, there are immense vineyards. In fact the wine production is based on quantity even though the quality still keeps up.
For Veronelli, a person who really knew wines, the Trevigiano and Veronese areas are the best around, where champion wines are born like Valpolicella, Recioto, Bardolino, Soave (near Giulietta), Prosecco, which is grown on the Trevigiani hills of Conegliano and Valdobbiadene.
