Enoteca Segnalaghi

Enoteca Segnalaghi is a wine bar and osteria in Conegliano, the handsome hill town in the province of Treviso that marks the start of the Strada del Prosecco, Italy's first designated wine road, winding through the UNESCO-listed Prosecco hills toward Valdobbiadene. The enoteca makes an ideal introduction to Veneto wine culture, with an extensive selection focused on the local sparkling wines — Prosecco Superiore DOCG from the Conegliano-Valdobbiadene hills — alongside Soave, Valpolicella and other regional labels, many available by the glass and in tasting flights. A guided three-wine Prosecco Superiore tasting lets visitors compare the styles of the area, from brut to the gently sparkling frizzante. The food is designed to accompany the wine: boards of local cheeses and salumi, regional cicchetti and small plates that pair with the bottles, drawing on the produce of the Treviso countryside. The atmosphere is relaxed and convivial, equally suited to a casual aperitivo, a leisurely tasting or a light meal, with knowledgeable staff who can guide both novices and enthusiasts through the local appellations; there is no dress code. Prices are moderate, with the wines by the glass offering excellent value for exploring the region. The enoteca keeps daytime and evening hours through the week with a Sunday closure, so checking the schedule is sensible. For travellers exploring the Prosecco road and the hills around Conegliano and Valdobbiadene, Enoteca Segnalaghi is an excellent first stop to understand and taste the wines of the Veneto in their home territory.
