Dante Alighieri spent several years of his exile in Verona. His son, Pietro, came to love the beauty of the city and its countryside, and so decided to remain in the area, purchasing the Casal dei Ronchi in Gargagnago estate in the heart of the historic Valpolicella region in 1353. Twenty generations later, both house and estate still belong to Dante's direct descendants, the Counts Serego Alighieri.
Thanks to careful conservative restoration, eight small apartments, two functions rooms for tastings or events and one professional kitchen ideal for cooking courses, have been made out of the old Villa outbuildings and turned into the Foresteria, providing an elegant location for both leisure and business activities.
Near the cellars, there is a shop where it is possible to taste and buy the complete range of Serego Alighieri, Bossi Fedrigotti and Masi products. The shop is the exclusive retailer of the historic cru Amarone wines, as well as a selected range of older and historic vintages. An excellent place to find a special gift or souvenir of a pleasurable holiday in Valpolicella
