Veneto is a substantial and increasingly important wine region in the north-eastern corner of Italy. culture and wine styles, it represents a transition between the alpine, Germano-Slavic end of Italy and the warmer, drier, more Roman lands to the south. In the 1990s, southern Italian wine languished in an increasingly competitive and demanding world, while Veneto upped its game, gaining recognition with such wines as Valpolicella, Amarone, Ripasso, Soave and Prosecco.

Winery characteristic
A true example of a complete wine supply chain, the Tezza winery stands out for its genuineness and transparency. The whole process of vinification takes place inside the property, without any external contribution, to guarantee the quality of the wines. The choice of a short chain, traceable and of a high-standard processing that prefers the quality of a careful control of the quantity of mass production, is the signature of the Tezza family, which sees in its cousins Vanio, Flavio and Federico the third generation of winemakers.
