The Prosecco DOC zone spans nine provinces across Veneto and Friuli Venezia Giulia, stretching from Udine to Padova and encompassing a varied landscape. Altitudes range from 2 to 568 meters, with an average of 18 meters above sea level. While mostly flat, about 7% of the area features slopes in regions like Colli Euganei, Colli Berici, and Treviso. The soil is mainly calcareous, with sandy and stony areas adding further diversity. This combination of altitude, terrain, and soil forms a unique terroir that shapes the flavor and quality of Prosecco DOC, making its origin an essential part of its identity.
