  • REFRONTOLO PASSITO Single Vineyard Grapes: Marzemino
    REFRONTOLO PASSITO Single vineyard Grapes: Marzemino The Refrontolo Passito was the favourite of Mozart, that called it "Excellent Marzemino", in his opera "Don Giovanni". In Refrontolo, a UNESCO Wold Heritage site, the production of the Marzemino Passito has a tradition that dates back to 1400. Perfect with chocolate and as a meditation wine. TECHNICAL SHEET NAME OF THE WINE: Refrontolo Passito Colli di Conegliano DOCG. GRAPES: 100 % Marzemino. HISTORICAL NOTES: in Refrontolo the production of this wine has a tradition that dates back to 1400. This wine was drunk by mothers after the birth of their sons, because of its recovering features. The Marzemino Passito from Refrontolo impressed also Mozart, who even mentioned it in his opera Don Giovanni in this way: "that excellent Marzemino". In fact he received this wine from Mr. Da Ponte from Vittorio Veneto (a town near Refrontolo), who was Mozart's copyist. PRODUCTION AREA: Colvendrame estate, which is on the hills between Conegliano and Valdobbiadene, a UNESCO Wold Heritage site. Colvendrame is the name of the hill where this vineyard is; the exposition to the sun and the climate are excellent for grape vine growing. ALTITUDE: 200-350 m. SOIL: with a good balance of all the components. It is rich in tufa which characterises the wine. CLIMATE: mild and windy, with wide changes of temperature between day and night, ideal for the preservation of the aroma and the acidity of the grapes.

  • Tourism in Veneto in 2018
    YEAR 19 - MARCH 2019 UNDERSTANDING VENETO IN FIGURES AND DIAGRAMS Veneto offers tourists a wide range of experiences to enjoy, share and repeat. Indeed, there are infinite combinations of holiday experiences, which only for the sake of simplification are traditionally grouped into five different types: sea, mountain, cities of art, spas and lake. Every experience brings you into contact with the culture, landscape, traditions, local produce and identity of Veneto. In 2017, Veneto had recorded record numbers of tourists and, as we know, it is hard to match up to much higher figures than the trend outlined over the years. However, in 2018, the tourist appeal of Veneto, enhanced by the entrepreneurial skills of local operators and by a structured and collaborative promotion plan, further increased the flow of tourists to the region, welcoming approximately 19.6 million visitors TOURISM IN VENETO IN (+2.2%)1, and over 69.2 million overnight stays 2018: CONFIRMATION OF (+0.2%). In 2018, Veneto saw an greater increase in the number of Italian tourists (+2.8% arrivals and SUCCESS +1.6% in overnight stays). Foreign visitors increased in number (+1.8%) - confirming the strong appeal of Veneto locations - but not with regard to overnight stays (-0.4%). Positive changes are recorded for the non-hotel sector (+4.8% and +0.5%), whereas interest in the hotel sector increase (+0.8% arrivals) whilst the number of overnight stays remains stable (-0.1%). Please note that these statistics relate only to those who stay for at least one night, i.e. guests staying in accommodation for holidays, business, health, medical care, sporting or religious purposes etc.

  • The Case of Veneto and Verona
    Dario Calomino Processing coin finds data in Northern Italy: the case of Veneto and Verona ICOMON e-Proceedings (Utrecht, 2008) 3(2009), 55 - 62 Downloaded from: www.icomon.org 55 Processing coin finds data in Northern Italy: the case of Veneto and Verona Dario Calomino Università degli Studi di Verona [email protected] The aim of this paper is to present the numismatic research of the Centro Regionale di Catalogazione dei Beni Numismatici del Veneto, a programme of cataloguing and processing coin finds and numismatic collections data in the region of Veneto, supervised by Prof. Giovanni Gorini of the University of Padua. The project takes place with the cooperation of both municipal and state museums, gathering together all the coins found in the region or belonging to historical collections. The coin finds are published in the multi-volume series of the Ritrovamenti monetali di età romana in Veneto, and the entire numismatic heritage of the museums of Veneto is catalogued in a numismatic computer database that will be available on the regional website. This paper offers some examples of the filing scheme for both the volumes and the database, illustrating research tools that can be used to find a specimen or to process data for further studies. Some results of these projects are also shown in the paper. The publication plan for coin finds and numismatic research in the town of Verona is also illustrated, in particular the forthcoming volume covering the coins found in the historical centre. Since 1986 the Centro Regionale di Catalogazione dei Beni Numismatici del Veneto (Regional Centre for Cataloguing the Numismatic Heritage in Veneto) has promoted a wide programme of cataloguing and processing data concerning coin finds in the region of Veneto, supervised by Prof.

  • Pairing Basics
    Pairing Basics SPICY FOOD: • Bold, peppery, hot • Wide variety of styles, preparations, accompaniments • Requires a palate-cleansing wine to refresh the palate GENERAL Pairing Tips: • Acidity in a wine cuts through richness and helps it stand up to bold flavors in food • Tannins and alcohol in a wine enhance the perception of spice in food • Sweetness and fruitiness in a wine can contrast with and tone down spice in food • Pair “like” components: intensity, complexity, texture, fruit or earth o Example: delicate, fresh, clean flavors deserve a delicate, fresh, clean wine o Example: bold, rich, complex dishes deserve a bold, rich, complex wine • What grows together goes together • Consider the occasion 1) Spreitzer Oestricher Lenchen Kabinett Riesling ’10 – Rheingau, Germany • Riesling has naturally high acidity and can be made in a variety of styles from bone dry to off-dry to very sweet; the acidity balances the sweetness • “Kabinett” is a designation used in Germany; it indicates the grapes were picked at lower levels of ripeness, which translates to lighter, lower alcohol wines; usually off-dry • Light body won’t overwhelm light dishes, or it can contrast with richer dishes • Bright acidity and some sweetness refreshes the palate after eating spicy food 2) Clos Roche Blanche Sauvignon Blanc No. 2 ’11 – Touraine, France • Sancerre is the famous appellation for Sauvignon Blanc in the Loire Valley in France; this is from a larger area just east of there • Tangy fruits, herbal and bell pepper notes complement dishes with peppers and/or fresh herbs; pungency stands up to bold flavors; light body and high acidity refreshes the palate • Clos Roche Blanche is known for being very non-interventionist in approach All class outlines are copyright of Corkbuzz Wine Studio.

  • Best Practises for New Approaches in Tourism
    Living Learning Catalogue Best practises for new approaches in tourism Preface “The main purpose was to enrich the analytical skills, while developing new knowledge based on digital tools and services” BLUTOURSYSTEM is a European project based on the Interreg Italy - Croatia 2014 2020 program and which involved 6 partners representing the academic and institutional world; a project that at the territorial level has affected the Veneto region and the Puglia region for the Italian side while for the Croatian territory the Istria region and the area Southern part of the croatian country. The main purpose was to enrich the analytical skills of stakeholders, while developing new knowledge based on advanced and digital tools and services. Blutoursystem, after having inherited the results of the previous TourMEDasset project coordinated by the Ca ‘Foscari University, designed a new ambitious path whose key concepts were: • Business ecosystem, in reference to the network of organizations involved in providing the products and services that make up the tourism product; • Quadruple Helix approach, that is the reduction of the barriers that exist between the academic, institu- tional, private and civil world, stimulating the interaction, to encourage economic and social development; • Living Labs, laboratories with a dual dimension: the real one represented by multiple meetings that involved local actors, to collect the main needs and draw together future scenarios capable of facing challenges and maximizing benefits; on the other hand, a technological dimension: in a world where data is the real wealth, having free access to dashboard containing organized data and knowing how to read it becomes a real chal- lenge.

  • The Veneto and Friuli Venezia Giulia Regions
    DEPAUW SUMMER 2015 Explore Italy REGIONS AND CITIES OF NORTHEASTERN ITALY The Authentic Italy Northeastern Italy is composed of two regions, Veneto and Friuli Venezia-Giulia. At the geographical heart of Europe, the area has played host to many different peoples and cultures, including the Celts, Romans, Huns, Byzantines, Lombards, Franks, Venetians, French, and Hapsburgs, before becoming regions of Italy. The result is an area rich in diverse architecture and art, and one with world-class cuisine and wine. The two regions are home to no less than eight UNESCO World Heritage Sites. The New York Times recently called Friuli “Italy’s Secret Garden,” and the region has only lately been discovered by non- The Veneto and Friuli Venezia Europeans. Giulia Regions “Friuli is the great undiscovered region of Italy: It has beautiful beaches on the Adriatic, stunning undiscovered alps in Carnia, idyllic scenery in the winegrowing district known as Collio, vibrant and handsome cities such as Udine and mysterious Trieste, historical centers such as Aquileia and Cividale del Friuli, wonderful food and wine, great coffee, good cultural facilities, and above all some of the warmest, most welcoming people you will ever meet.” Slovenia & Croatia A town of ancient origins on the coast of the Istrian peninsula, 25 km from Italy, Piran was voluntarily absorbed into the Venetian empire in 1283 when Croatian pirates were continually threatening the Dalmatian coast. Many Venetian artists visited and worked in Piran, including the famed Piranese violinist Giuseppe Tartini (born in Piran) and the Venetian master painter Tintoretto, one of whose paintings can be seen in the local museum.
