Welcome to episode 2236 of the Italian Wine Podcast, and episode 177 of Wine, Food & Travel with Marc Millon. Marc’s guest today is Domenico Veronese of Villa Bogdano 1880 located in Lison di Portogruaro, near Venice. More about today’s guest: Villa Bogdano 1880 is a forward-thinking Italian estate steeped in centuries of history. Located in Lison di Portogruaro, near Venice, between the Alps and the Adriatic coast, Villa Bogdano is the home of heritage vineyards of great interest. 18 hectares of their 110 hectare estate are defined as historic, among them are 117 vines of Tocai Friulano, that date back to the end of the 19th century. The subject of a meticulous recovery operation, these very old vines are still in production today and are a rare example of an ancient training system called “Cassone Padovano”, developed by the Benedictine monks.
