Longare

Situated in the Vicenza province of Italy's northeastern Veneto region, this community of 5,514 residents occupies a landscape shaped by the volcanic soils and mild microclimates of the Berici Hills. This distinct agricultural terroir yields 18 protected denominations, anchored by the local Colli Berici DOC — a specialized wine zone restricted to only 26 municipalities — and the garlic-seasoned Soprèssa Vicentina DOP. Today, 3 verified producers craft these authentic regional specialties within Longare’s borders, with 2 opening their cellars to offer travelers firsthand tastings of their historic viticultural craft.
