Carpenè Malvolti
Via Antonio Carpenè, 1, Conegliano (TV)
Founded in 1868 by Antonio Carpenè – the father of modern enology and founder of Italy’s first School of Enology – CARPENÈ MALVOLTI is the oldest family-run sparkling wine house in Italy. It was thanks to this winery that a local wine, previously produced only by rural farmers using domestic methods for their own tables, became a benchmark of Italian enology: Prosecco. Guided tours of the cellars retrace this history, accompanied by tastings of their own brandy and grappa.
Foss Marai
Strada di Guia, 109, Guia di Valdobbiadene (TV)
A benchmark of Italian winemaking, FOSS MARAI sparkling wines stand out for their refined taste, crafted across a 5,000-square-metre estate in the heart of Valdobbiadene. The winery also produces bottlings born from constant research into native grape varieties and innovative techniques, such as Marai de Marai, in Extra Dry or Brut versions, created by revisiting an old family recipe with a modern touch. For visitors, the experience centres on the Bottega dello Spumante, a dedicated space where guests are guided through the vineyards and production rooms before tasting the estate’s wines and buying FOSS MARAI bottles.
Nani Rizzi
Via Stanghe, 22, Valdobbiadene (TV)

Villa Sandi
Via Erizzo, 105, Crocetta del Montello (TV)
VILLA SANDI, a magnificent Palladian-style villa dating from 1622, is the headquarters of the wine estate of the same name, which transforms grapes from five regional estates into renowned Prosecco. Here, art, culture and winemaking come together in grand surroundings. Guided tours start in the historic barrel cellar and wind through centuries-old underground passages. First World War tunnels then lead into the villa itself, where you can taste the wines surrounded by ornate stuccoes, bas-reliefs and Murano chandeliers.
Col Vetoraz
Str. delle Treziese, 1, Valdobbiadene (TV)
COL VETORAZ takes its name from the peak where it stands, commanding 360-degree views across the surrounding countryside that provide a truly striking setting. Since 1838 – when the Miotto family settled here – the estate has produced celebrated Valdobbiadene DOCG and Valdobbiadene Superiore di Cartizze DOCG wines. The reception room serves as a panoramic terrace over Cartizze, with large floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the vines. Guests can take guided educational sessions to learn about Valdobbiadene, while the upstairs room is reserved for tastings of local wines.
Bisol1542

One is a half-day experience that covers every stage of Prosecco production in the cellar and concludes with a lunch pairing regional Veneto specialities with estate wines.
Bortolomiol
Via della Filandeta 7, Valdobbiadene (TV)
Since 1760, the Bortolomiol family has passed down a tradition built on respect for the land and its ingredients, producing bottles that reflect quality and a deep bond with their local area. In a former silk mill from the early ‘900s, you can sample these wines within two hectares of parkland that also house the first vinification centre, a stone amphitheatre and an organic vineyard. Guests can choose between 3 different tours, all wrapping up with an aperitivo featuring a selection of wines paired with either gourmet cicchetti or local cured meats and cheeses.
Bortolin
Via Barch, 29, Guia (TV)
For three generations, the BORTOLIN family has helmed this winery set in the Treviso hills. Since 2015, their sparkling wines have been bottled in a custom design that represents an authentic expression of the region: its shape recalls the twist of a vine branch, while the label colours mirror the shades of the surrounding countryside. Crafted with grapes harvested entirely by hand, BORTOLIN fizz has been chosen to toast prestigious events including the Sanremo Festival and the David di Donatello awards.

Follador Prosecco Wines
Via Gravette, 42, Farra di Soligo (TV)
The FOLLADOR PROSECCO WINES estate dates back to 1769, the year of the family’s first recorded wine production. Over time, the family at the helm has managed to marry ancient craft with modern innovation, introducing pioneering releases such as sugar-free Prosecco, with little or no residual sugar while retaining top quality, and vegan-friendly Prosecco. Grapes are harvested strictly by hand before undergoing cryomaceration, a cold-soak process that draws out the distinct aromas of Prosecco Superiore.
