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

"A multi-generation Alto Adige estate founded in 1880 and especially celebrated for its Pinot Noir, it has long combined tradition with experimentation. The property added a luxury resort in 2021 whose 15 suites open onto private terraces overlooking a bio-pool park and the South Tyrolean valley, plus independent apartments with private saunas and fireplaces; spa and pool areas feature Asian-influenced décor and traditional charred-larch finishes. On the culinary side, the L'Orangerie restaurant emphasizes Mediterranean cuisine—fish and shellfish, southern fruit and vegetables—with occasional Asian touches. The estate’s Pinot Noir is noted for its lively, inviting character, light tannins and subtlety, varying in hue by vintage." - Federico De Cesare Viola
