In the past century our vineyards area was belonging to the Serenissima, the last mainland before arriving at the lagoon and then the sea, a fertile and welcoming land called also Garden of Venice.
In the 15th - 16th century, the Venetian Republic organized and controlled, almost on an industrial scale, each sector and type of activity, developing especially new technology in agriculture, the “Holy Agriculture”, as they use to say.
