Il Palazzo

Our farm, our agriturismo, which we lovingly call Il Palazzo, was developed generations ago and continues to develop and expand under our care, is located in a scenic neighborhood of rolling hills 2 km or 1.2 miles from the medieval town of Brisighella and 6/10 of a mile from a thermal spa. Here, built upon a natural terrace and within a perimeter of gently rolling hills, vineyards and fragrant woods are located the three guest houses, recently renovated but still keeping to the authenticity of the typical architecture of the Romagnola countryside. It is here that our guests find their warm and welcoming lodgings.

The green of the vineyards, and the scenic views of the neighboring woods and hills enhance and soothe our guests with their peaceful calmness, and tranquility. The five rooms with private baths are spacious and comfortable.

The apartment is a studio flat (60m2) complete with private bath, and kitchen. It can accommodate up to six persons. The cooking is done with extreme care using only the pure and genuine products which are predominately grown here on our farm. Even the recipes are carefully created using originality and creativity while keeping true to the traditional dishes allowing our guests to savor the variety of flavors and textures of the foods which have made Emilia-Romagna so well known for it's cuisine. The wine that is served comes directly from our canteen where the winemaking follows the dictates of the organic farming methods while keeping within the age old tradition of winemaking passed from generation to generation.

The choice of organic farming represents a choice of quality. It is a method of farming in which healthy food is produced while respecting nature and the environment. The vegetable garden, the small orchard, and the vineyards are cultivated by following the organic farming methods and are frequently checked and monitored by the ICEA, the association that oversees and certifies those agriculturists who choose organic farming to produce healthy and prime quality produce.

The winemaking is achieved through age-old traditions handed down through the generations. The fine quality wines produced in the canteen at Il Palazzo are the products of a master winemaker, a craftsman whose dedication to his trade is reflected in the great care given to each vine in the vineyard-from the weeding of the vines to the selection of the best clusters of grapes at the time of the harvest. It is possible to purchase our fine organic wines if one so desires. Sangiovese, Chardonnay, Trebbiano, Cagnina.
