Beavita embodies the rebirth of Riviera del Brenta wines. Half way between the Dolomites and Venice, Riviera del Brenta is one of the most fascinating inhabited areas of the Venetian metropolitan region, with an all but forgotten winemaking tradition. The fine wines created in these beautiful country estates that once belonged to Venetian Dukes and gentlefolk are worth rediscovering.

The Venetian villas that dot this enchanting area along the river Brenta have always been more than just pleasant holiday places for the aristocracy – they have always also been thriving farms, surrounded by verdant fields and vineyards. Between the 15th and 19th century they were important providers of agricultural produce for the Serenissima Republic, and much appreciated for the high-quality wines they produced. Nowadays, many of those estates have been broken up into smaller lots, farmed by local people, gathered in a cooperative since 1947.
