The enchanting Serego Alighieri Possessions were purchased in 1353 by Pietro Alighieri, son of the great poet Dante (yes, the one in Dan Brown “Inferno” novel…), and had already been known since then for the excellence of their vineyards.
You will be welcomed and you will enjoy your private guided tour of the Masi Cellars with a member of the Boscaini Family that will have the pleasure of taking guests on a pleasant walk in the historic estate of Dante Alighieri’s descendants.
A dive into history that includes a visit to the “fruit” cellar and to the historic cellar full of fragrant cherry barrels according to the family tradition.
For each group of guests the book “Mr. Amarone “with a special autograph dedication and a wooden box containing 6 really special bottles:
Campofiorin, the “Supervenetian” from a 250 years old winery.
“Campofiorin is an ancient wine, because it is a gentleman, and therefore cultured, poised and sophisticated, but it spans time and ethnicities to remain as contemporary as every classic.
Just like Masi is a classic, which is after all a winery whose history has become both a paradigm both in the Veneto and in Italy… and whose relationship with Valpolicella seems to be the very epitome of the phrase genius loci”
(Leila Salimbeni, “Spirito DiVino” 2017).
