Borgo Antiga: Wine, Trails and History

These themes represent different ways to plan your stay. The wine information offers insight into the products and cultivation, the trail leads to a cultural and historical destination, and a restored house draws attention to architectural history.

Wine and grape varieties

Vettori mainly produces white wines. Conegliano-Valdobbiadene Prosecco Superiore is at the heart of its range; Chardonnay and Manzoni bianco are also part of its profile. The product range may evolve. Glera, Verdiso, Bianchetta and Perera are grown at the Borgo America vineyard, which is farmed organically.

The information offers two different perspectives on wine: Vettori is described in terms of the producer’s profile, while the Borgo America vineyard is described in terms of the grape varieties grown and how the vineyard is farmed. This distinction helps you consider products and cultivation as separate topics, rather than combining wine and grape variety names into a single list. If you are interested in wine, you can pay attention both to a producer’s focus and to the variety of grapes grown.

A short walk to the Eremo

A short walk leads from Borgo America to the Eremo. In the vicinity of Borgo America, on Colle Capriolo, are the remains of the Ex Eremo Camaldolese di San Benedetto, an ancient Camaldolese hermitage. This connects the route description with a specific cultural and historical destination. You may also come across a cross on the short walk; it is supported by a very old stone.

For planning purposes, the walk is a distinct, clearly defined section on foot: the starting point and destination are named, and the cross is one possible point of interest along the way. The remains on Colle Capriolo are located in the vicinity of Borgo America. This lets you consider the short walk and the monastery ruins as related cultural and historical topics without implying a prescribed order for visiting them.

Historic architectural styles

Tenuta Sant’Eufemia is a finely restored 19th-century farmhouse. Its architectural style and dating offer a different historical connection from the remains of the ancient Camaldolese hermitage. Here, the focus is on a 19th-century farmhouse; there, it is on the history of a hermitage. The comparison highlights two different architectural forms and periods without presenting them as a single complex.

When choosing what to focus on, you can consider walking, wine and history separately: the short walk is a specific excursion on foot, the wine information distinguishes between a producer’s profile and grape cultivation, and the two historic sites represent different architectural styles and periods. This lets you shape your travel plans around what interests you most.
