Valdobbiadene and the famous "prosecco road" represent a beautiful natural amphitheatre set in the hills of the high Treviso brand. In this land full of avian panoramas, lives CHRISTIAN ZANATTA, who dedicates himself to the production of prosecco in the vineyard of Bastia of Mondeserto. In this area, there are also the ancient hills of Cartizze, where the clay soil and a ventilated microclimate, generate an extraordinary oase for the production of a unique and valuable wine. Nestled in these millennial atmospheres, he also works PASQUAL REBULI, a "cechèr" profession, a craftsman who makes traditional wooden shoes in his workshop. The values of this historic valley are also reflected in the eyes of LUIGIA RUGGERI, who recently celebrated her 107th birthday and who lived, firsthand, the "refugee". In Guia, on the other hand, there is GINO BUSO, called "Scarpèr", "one of the last cobblers" in the area, witnessing a job that is disappearing. Further on, in Bigolino di Valdobbiadene, the protection of the coastal territory is carried out by the sculptor GIOACCHINO VETTORELLO, known as "Gioki". In the area of the Piave, on which the trunks used to build part of Venice were transported, Gioki selects the most suitable sauces for his works of art. Finally, here is still alive the tradition of choral singing, carried out by the "Coro di Valdobbiadene", which combines the memory of the past with innovation.
