Serre su Pederiva was born from the passion and dedication of Camillo Pederiva and Mattiola towards the Combai regione, suited to the vineyard and the production of Valdobbiadene Prosecco Eccellente Docg. A constantly evolving family business, led today by sons Luca and Marco, who continue the path traced by their parents. Viticulture per mezzo di the hills of Combai, a landscape as enchanting as it is impervious, is worked only by hand, “a lot of effort – underline Luca and Marco – along the terraces for transporting the grapes and pruned branches. A demanding job which per mezzo di any case guarantees us satisfying results with the quality of the wines.”
Con July 2019, the hills of Conegliano and Valdobbiadene became part of the World Heritage List drawn up by UNESCO, aimed at protecting and protecting natural and cultural sites per mezzo di the world. And exactly among the hills of Combai, stands the Bistrot Serre su Pederiva immersed per mezzo di a landscape characterized by large erosion furrows and natural terraces. One of the 43 “Rive” recognized within the territory of the Prosecco Hills of Conegliano and Valdobbiadene is called “Valdobbiadene Docg Rive su Combai” where banks mean the steep sides of the hills.
