The first of Torcolato

The pressing of the best bunches of dried Vespaiola grapes in the square.

The "Prima del Torcolato", the wonderful "sweet-not-sweet" wine of the Breganze DOC has become an unmissable appointment for the public of young people and families on Sunday afternoons.

Fausto Maculan, president of Strada del Torcolato, illustrates that "La Prima del Torcolato is the birthday party of us producers for our flagship wine. Torcolato is in fact the product that requires more work and love, from the vineyard to the cellar, work and love that are bestowed on it without any economy ".

The President concludes, "the town and the district will give their best, with the market of products from the Vicenza foothills , the re-enactments of ancient crafts , breathtaking visits to our bell tower and, an absolute novelty for 2012, the extraordinary opening of the cellars in the morning of the DOC Breganze for tastings and visits ".

Torcolato di "Prima" is therefore an absolutely unique sweet wine, out of the market; after two years of maturation, the bottles of Torcolato di "Prima" are partly donated to the participants in the party in his honor and partly to charity.
