Villa Della Torre

It was outstandingly good! Really perfect. The Hotel is perfectly maintained and very very nice. The crew is extremly friendly and quick. We had the breakfast everytime at another location. During the breakfast the room was made which is very rare and extremly attention to detail. I loved it there and we‘ll come back for sure!

This was our third time staying at Villa della Torre in Fumane and once again, it was an outstanding experience. From their Staff led by Angelo, to the rooms, food and wines, it’s a place we highly recommend. The location is also fantastic, an old castle refurbished to have very modern rooms in the middle of a winery. The only thing missing is a swimming pool. Hopefully the Allegrini family builds one soon. Breakfast is included in the room rate and it was very well served every morning. If you want to eat either lunch or dinner, you let them know ahead of time and they give you choices and do a magnificent job with those meals as well. Their wines including Pallazzo della Torre and La Grola (one of our favorites) which use Valpolicella region grapes, and Il Seggio ( this from their wineries in Tuscany, are also very good. Besides La Grola which we have know for a while, we tried their Lugana (white) and their Amarone Classico and both were outstanding. You can ask them to organize a wine tasting. It’s very worth it and they’re very knowledgeable. Villa della Torrre is also located very close to a number of good restaurants in the region. Angelo did a magnificent job of recommending and making reservations in several places. All in all, Villa della Torre is one of our favorite places to spend several day in Italy. We will definitely be back again. If you’re thinking about visiting Verona or Fumane, make a reservation at Villa della Torre. It’s memorable.

What an incredible place to stay. We stayed in the wine themed rooms which were enormous and had a fantastic view out across then vines. So peaceful as we sat within the grounds enjoying their delicious Soave wine for a few hours in the afternoon sun. If you are doing a tour of valpolicella area, you definitely need to stay here.

Whilst staying on lake Garda we booked for a private tour and lunch at this villa which is about a 30 minute drive from the eastern side of the lake. The villa itself is stunning and seeped in history. The tour was conducted by a delightful young lady who spoke perfect English. We pretty much had the villa to ourselves on the day of our visit and our own private dining room. The three course lunch was very good and the four wines we drunk were outstanding. For a full visit it is imperative to book in advance. However you can just drop in to purchase the Allegrini wines. The prices range from around 10€ a bottle to a Yorkshire war cry price of in excess of 700€. If you fancy a change from the usual Valpollicella then the La Grola is worth trying. They also produce an amazing red dessert wine called Recioto which is aged longer than Amerone and is available at around half the UK price. Be aware that some of the wines are quite young and need to mature in the bottle, the ready matured ones are significantly pricier so patience may be a virtue! However the basic Allegrini at around 10€ a bottle is perfectly quaffable now with a bowl of pasta.

We (a group a ladies) decided to do an impromptu stop at the vineyard, and luckily we met a wonderful lady at the entrance. Thanks to her we manage to get a tour and tasting at the estate. The location is beautiful and we got interesting insight into the Allegrini story and the wines. Her English was great and after just 3 days in the job, she took very good care of us. Perfect hours spent at a girl trip. As a special treat we got to meet the queen herself as we biked of the property.
