As
one travels up route A27 from Venice, nearly
twenty-five miles of plains pass before reaching
the town of Conegliano and the beginning of
the foothills to the Alps. About fourteen miles
due east of Conegliano sits the town of Valdobbiadene.
Between the two towns, the land is mostly flat
where the Soligo River joins the Piave, and
the Alpine foothills circumvent this plain,
curling around it to the north, to form the
DOC Prosecco di Conegliano-Valdobbiadene. Producers
usually shorten this to either Prosecco di Congliano
or Valdobbiadene, depending on which town they
are closer to.
