Vespaiola is one of those grapes most people walk past without knowing it. It's native to the hills around Bassano del Grappa, best known in its still and dried versions, but it makes a quietly brilliant sparkling wine. This one is made using the Long Charmat method, matured on the fine lees for over 60 days at low temperature — long enough to build a perlage that's fine and persistent without losing the grape's natural freshness.

In the glass it's citrusy and delicate — white fruit, a clean freshness and a lightness that makes it easy to keep pouring. Not a wine that tries to impress, just one that delivers every time.

Pierluigi's Note: This is exactly what I want in a sparkling — fresh, clean and unpretentious. Perfect as an aperitivo, with fried fish or vegetables. Serve very cold.

Le Vie Angarano is not just a winery — it's a villa with over 500 years of history. Villa Angarano was designed by Andrea Palladio in 1548 and has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1996. Today it's owned by the five Bianchi Michiel sisters, who have kept the original vision alive: home and land, inseparable.

The estate sits along the Brenta River near Bassano del Grappa, surrounded by orchards and centuries-old trees. The same river that in the 13th century brought Venice here to source wine. A clear commitment to organic farming with native grapes like Vespaiola and Marzemino.

Veneto is one of Italy's most prolific wine regions, stretching from the Dolomites down to the Adriatic coast. Most people know it for Prosecco, Amarone and Soave — the big names that dominate wine lists everywhere. But inland, in the hills around Bassano del Grappa and Breganze, there's a quieter story being told.

This is where Vespaiola grows — an ancient native grape, almost impossible to find outside the area, that makes wines of real delicacy and character. The hills here are gentler, the climate milder, and the connection to the land runs deep. Far from the tourist trail, this is Veneto at its most honest.
