Villa Della Torre
The Italian Renaissance in the heart of Valpolicella
The Italian Renaissance in the heart of Valpolicella
Villa della Torre – one of the Italian Renaissance jewels – is the work of Giulio Romano and Michele Sanmicheli, who designed its forms between the end of 1440 and 1562, following the model of the Roman domus. Purchased in 2008 by Marilisa Allegrini, today it houses a Wine&Art Relais and hosts the Villa Della Torre winery, a project overseen by Marilisa’s daughters, Carlotta and Caterina.
You can spend the night in the Villa: choose from ten luxury rooms dedicated to excellent wines or personalities who have made the Villa great.
