A Historic Winery with 21 Generations of Tradition
A Winery with Roots in the 14th Century
Situated in the picturesque Valpolicella Classico district, Possessioni di Serego Alighieri is a historic estate renowned for its winemaking heritage. Founded in 1353 by Pietro Alighieri, the son of the famous poet Dante Alighieri, this charming winery is nestled among lush hills just a few kilometers from Verona and the stunning Lake Garda. The Alighieri family joined forces with the influential Serego family in 1549, and since then, the Serego-Alighieri lineage has continued to nurture this estate, dedicated to crafting exceptional wines that reflect their love for the land.
Exclusive Wines from the Descendants of Dante Alighieri
Possessioni di Serego Alighieri stands as a hallmark of quality in the Valpolicella region. The estate's wines are a testament to the dedication and expertise of the skilled team working in its vineyards. In 1973, Tenuta Serego Alighieri became part of the prestigious Masi Group, further enhancing its reputation. The estate features a wide courtyard paved with traditional Prune stone, and in 1875, 11 ancient vines were planted to commemorate the birth of Count Pieralvise.
Traditional Winemaking Practices
The winery employs traditional appassimento techniques, using drying lofts to concentrate the rich flavors of the grapes. After harvesting the classic Valpolicella blend of Corvina, Rondinella, and Molinara, the grapes are laid out on bamboo racks, or Arele, for a minimum of 100 days. The estate produces two prestigious wines, Amarone and Recioto, both celebrated worldwide. Possessioni di Serego Alighieri boasts some of the oldest cellars in Valpolicella, where ancient winemaking traditions are still honored. The aroma of wine aging in 600-liter cherry wood barrels fills the cellar, enhancing the wines' smoothness and character.
Visitors are warmly welcomed to the estate to sample a selection of premium red and white wines, paired with local delicacies. Guests can learn about the winemaking process while engaging with fellow wine enthusiasts. A guided tasting offers insights into how the team transforms grapes into internationally acclaimed wines. Strolling through the gardens and vineyards provides a glimpse into the rich history of the Alighieri family and the Valpolicella region. Enjoy a delightful day at Serego Alighieri with friends and family, and take the opportunity to purchase wines directly from the cellar.
