The vineyards in this location are phenomenal and extremely beautiful. I loved touring some of the vineyards and learning about the process of wine manufacturing and how they care for the grapes that produce the wine. I bought a few bottle of wine for personal consumption

The various hamlets located in this location bear the story of how the place has revolutionized over the years. I toured the ruins, castles, and destroyed buildings that existed in ancient times and got to learn about the Aquileian patriarchs who ruled in this location.

A charming place with lots of exciting sites to visit. We had a remarkable time as we visited the castle and other ruins all through the place. A tour through all these amazing places was totally worth the walk and i enjoyed every moment that i had at the place.

One of the distinctive things about the place is the wonderful vineyards and wineries that surround the place. We had a tour around the vineyards and i couldn't get it off my head how amazing the place is. We had wine tasting of the sweet wine samples and loved it completely.
