History: the Castello di Roncade
The Castello di Roncade stands on the ruins of a tenth century castle donated by Emperor Otto II, whose surrounding walls survive to this day. In 1508 the Venetian nobleman Girolamo Giustinian had the present Renaissance villa built within the ancient walls, making it one of the very few examples of a pre-Palladian Veneto villa still fortified. For four centuries the complex was inhabited by the Giustinian family, among the most illustrious in the history of the Republic of Venice, before passing at the beginning of the twentieth century to the Ciani Bassetti family, who oversaw its restoration and the replanting of its vineyards.
The castle today: wine and visits
Today the Castello di Roncade is at once a historic residence open to visitors and an active winery, with a hundred and ten hectares of vineyard characterised by clay soil layered with caranto, the ancient sediment typical of the Veneto plain, just centimetres below the surface. This soil composition, combined with a favourable microclimate, contributes to the quality of the estate's wines, fragrant whites and full-bodied reds that represent one of the more interesting expressions of winemaking in the Marca Trevigiana.
Food, wine and local produce
The Castle's wine production fits into a broader agricultural context, that of the plain between the Sile and Piave rivers, where Roncade shares with neighbouring municipalities a tradition of still and sparkling wines from the Piave Doc and lowland Prosecco areas. Alongside wine, local cuisine follows the rhythms of the Treviso countryside, with radicchio, asparagus and game based dishes, in a territory that still relies on solid, diversified agriculture.
Local life and location
Beyond the castle, Roncade is a small town on the plain, with an economy combining agriculture, small business and services linked to its proximity to both Treviso and the Venice metropolitan area, only a few kilometres away. It is a town that balances the twin influence of the two provinces, without fully belonging to either of the two nearby major cities.
Getting there
Roncade lies along the road connecting Treviso to Venice, about fifteen kilometres from the provincial capital and a similar distance from the Quarto d'Altino motorway exit on the A4. The town is easily reached by car and is served by bus connections to Treviso and Venezia Mestre.
