Rosso della Canonica Vecia
IGT Marca Trevigiana
Churches, bell towers and parsonages, old houses of clergymen, specially the ones on hills, are located in a dominant position. Every year the last grape that is harvested in late autumn
is the Raboso in a small vineyard at the top of the hill, facing
the breathless panorama of seven bell towers that stand on the horizon, sheltered from winter winds by the old parsonage.
