3 natural spots in Veneto, editor-picked by Cork & Curve. All dietary guides in Veneto.
La Biancara (Angiolino Maule) ★ 4.8
Gambellara DOC, Vicenza Province · Contrada Biancara 8, 36053 Gambellara, Italy
Angiolino Maule is the founder of the VinNatur association (2006), a network of natural winemakers committed to no pesticides and no additives in the cellar.
Tip: La Biancara wines are only reliably available through VinNatur-affiliated importers; in the Veneto, look at specialist natural wine bars in Verona for the Sassaia and Pico.
Costadila ★ 4.6
Prosecco Superiore UNESCO Hills, Treviso · Via Barch 2, 31049 Rolle di Cison di Valmarino, Italy
Ernesto Cattel and Adelaide Tommasi produce col fondo (cloudily sediment-present) Prosecco Superiore DOCG on steep hillside vineyards at altitude above Rolle di Cison di Valmarino.
Tip: Costadila exports primarily to the US (Zev Rovine Selections) and UK natural wine merchants; in the Veneto, the wines appear at VinNatur and natural wine bars in Venice and Verona.
Davide Spillare ★ 4.5
Soave Classico sub-zone, Brognoligo · Via Scandolara 7, 37030 Brognoligo di Monteforte d'Alpone, Italy
Davide Spillare trained under Angiolino Maule at La Biancara and established his own estate in Brognoligo on the Soave Classico volcanic hillsides.
Tip: Spillare's Pico skin-contact Garganega is poured at VinNatur Villa Favorita each spring; the amber colour and mineral complexity are the result of two to four weeks of skin contact on volcanic soil Garganega.
