  4. Prosecco — Conegliano-Valdobbiadene & Asolo (Treviso hills)14 producersConegliano-Valdobbiadene and Asolo sit in the Treviso hills, where altitude helps aromas develop. Slopes, exposures and soils distinguish Rive and Cartizze, while Asolo Prosecco is light, fruity and dry-finishing.
  5. Soave, Gambellara & Lessini (eastern Verona / western Vicenza)26 producersSoave, Gambellara and the Lessini hills sit together in eastern Veneto. Garganega anchors the Soave and Lessini side, while volcanic soils are central to Gambellara.
