Information about Veneto

Region	Veneto
Country	Italy
Morphology of the land	Plain: 56% Hill: 15% Mountain: 29%
Climate and soil	In the high mountains the winters are very cold and the summers are fresh; along the shores of Lake Garda the climate is particularly mild, while in the Po valley the winters are cold and humid. In the period from October to March, we find thick fog banks that characterize the Po Valley; summer is hot and very muggy.
History	At the time of the Romans the region was called Venetia from the name of the ancient people that lived there. This region was also called Venice Euganea, always deriving from ancient inhabitants (Euganei) who were then absorbed by the Venetians. With Venezia Tridentina and Venezia Giulia, the Euganean Venice forms the so-called 'Tre Venezie'. Around 1000 a.C. the Venetians settled in the region, followed between the seventh and fifth centuries BC from the Etruscans and the RetiArusmati, and the meeting of their cultivation techniques began to take the first steps, with some success, to winemaking. The arrival of the Romans improved the situation and brought to fame the Rhaetian wine, that of the Euganean and Vicentine hills, magnified by Mariziale.
Typical products	The famous Soave, Bardolino and Valpolicella wines are produced. Veneto produces not only large quantities of table wines but also some very high quality wines such as Amarone della Valpolicella, Valpolicella Classico ODC and sweet dessert wine Recioto di Soave has obtained the denomination DOCG, as well as Soave Superiore and the Bardolino Superiore.
Typical dishes	All of Veneto was under the dominion of the Serenissima until 1797. The appetizers are numerous, both land and sea. You can remember the appetizing eels, that is fried lard and served with vinegar and salt, the baccalà mantecato, minced and steamed with salt, pepper, nutmeg and chopped parsley, the sardines in saor, fried and then layered with onions, cooked over low heat with oil, and then added vinegar, sugar, pine nuts and sultanas. Among the first courses stand out the bigoli, especially large spaghetti seasoned with duck sauce, with pocio, with sardines or in sauce. Here are the gnocchi alla cadorina, served with melted butter, walnuts, raisins and grated apples, pasta and beans with pork legs, tripe soup, scaligera soup and sopa coada, pigeon broth soup with bread and small diversity of ingredients. Among the best cheeses the hard cheese isiago when it is seasoned, excellent for grating, in particular that of the appreciated forms of vezzena, matured over two years and called extravagant, produced in particular at the Vezzena pass, on the Trentino side of the plateau of Asiago. Other excellent PDO cheeses are Monte Veronese, Montasio, Taleggio and Grana Padano, while the spress, smoked ricotta, stracchino and mascarpone are equally pleasing.
