Mazzorbo Island, Venice
Mazzorbo
Venice, Italy
Vineyards, Michelin starred restaurant and peace
About
Mazzorbo is linked to Burano by a bridge. It was once an important trading centre but is now known for its vineyards and orchards. Its main attractions are the fourteenth century Church of Santa Caterina, the Venissa boutique hotel, vineyard and Michelin starred restaurant (link below).
The walled Venissa vineyard grows the Dorona grape – a very rare white-wine grape grown exclusively around Venice.
The first traces of viticulture in the area date back to over 2500 years ago – and even St Mark’s Square once had a vineyard in the year 1150.
Venissa Restaurant
The Michelin starred restaurant offers seven-course or a ten-course tasting menu with wine pairings.
They also offer a boat service for anyone ‘wishing to live an immersive experience and crossing the lagoon from Venice or Altino to Mazzorbo island’.
The restaurant website is here
If your pocket can’t stretch to the Venissa restaurant, Mazzorbo also has Trattoria alla Maddalena nearby.
