Sunday 21 October to Treviso is the immancabile appointment that trevisani we wait for every year: SHADOW LONGA! I invite all to participate

The smaller measures that wine is sold in (helpful if you need to keep walking) are known as ombra.

This goes back to when the wine sellers in St Mark's Square set up their stalls in the shade of the Campanile.

As the sun moved around during the day, they shifted their mobile bars so as to stay in its shade and keep the barrels cool.

As a result, the local term for a bar crawl is 'the long shade' or ombra longa. The custom is still alive and well in Venice.
