Vino in Villa — a 3-day weekend in Veneto

22–25 May. Valdobbiadene, Italy. 30 min from the airport.

The weekend, day by day

  1. Day 1

    Arrive in Valdobbiadene

    Land at Venice Marco Polo (VCE), settle in and walk the old town in the afternoon. Light dinner near your accommodation — save your appetite for the festival day.

  2. Day 2

    Vino in Villa

    Festival day — arrive early to avoid the lunchtime crowd. Insider tip: The Rive single-vineyard Proseccos are the revelation — different from mass-market Prosecco in character and complexity. Cartizze, from the grand cru hillside, is the benchmark to taste.

  3. Day 3

    Wine country day in Veneto

    Use the third day for a single winery visit (booked ahead) and a long lunch at one of the regional addresses below before heading home.

Where to stay

Three angles for the festival window. Festival hotels book out 6+ months in advance — apartments are the contingency when the main shortlist is sold out.

Booking.com links — we may earn a commission. We never recommend hotels we wouldn't use ourselves.

Where to eat

Osteria alle Testiere

€€€

Venice's most lauded small osteria for seasonal fish, natural wines, and intimate 24-seat dining

Must try: Risotto al radicchio di Treviso
