OMBRA
Small Plates + Libations
"Dame'un Ombra"
the phrase comes from the merchant city of Venice; renowned for its vendors and markets.
​
White wine merchants would gather at the foot of the Torre (tower) dell'Orologio, across from the bustling Piazza San Marco.
During the day, these vintners would move their stands to stay in the shadow ("ombra") of the tower.
“Let’s drink in the shade/shadows” became synonymous with “let’s have a glass of wine.”
The phrase "dame un'ombra" continues to be a popular phrase for gathering to imbibe in the Veneto region!
​
OMBRA embodies the concept of moving and changing, much like the vintners of Venice.
