If You Are Traveling to Venice, Here Are the 8 Wineries You Have to Visit

"Situated on an island in the Venice lagoon and reachable by ferry from Santa Lucia station, this small-scale project revived a centuries-old local vineyard using Dorona di Venezie, a salty-soil–tolerant grape replanted after lagoon vineyards had disappeared following historic flooding. The estate centers on a 13-room wine resort with both a Michelin-starred fine-dining restaurant and a more casual osteria, run by a chef couple who work with three estate gardens and additional gardens managed by local residents to showcase herbs, seaweed, fish and seafood from the lagoon. The operation is fully plastic-free and designed as a model of sustainable tourism and ecosystem care; its Dorona-based white is golden, citrus- and dried-fruit–accented, with a saline finish that evokes the lagoon." - Federico De Cesare Viola
