In the Heart of the Land of Great Wines<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Valpolicella is not just a denomination; it is a territory rich in history, tradition, and passion for wine.

From our panoramic terrace, the view sweeps over expanses of vineyards climbing the hills, while behind them stand the ruins of the ancient medieval castle of Illasi, which recounts centuries of history. Thanks to this privileged position, we are literally surrounded by the area\u2019s best wineries, many of which are just few minutes\u2019 drive from our hotel.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

Our wine list carefully selects the best labels of Soave, Valpolicella, Amarone and Durello, allowing you to continue your sensory journey even at the table.<\/p>\n

On summer evenings, our panoramic terrace<\/strong> transforms into a natural stage, where you can have dinner at sunset with a breathtaking view on the vineyards illuminated by the golden light of the setting sun.
