The timeless beauty of Villa Dei Cipressi, nestled on the highest hilltop of the Sona Village, is both enchanting and inviting. Her classically elegant architecture and design are said to date back to the end of the ninth century.
Spacious rooms are tastefully decorated with antique furniture including many beautiful art deco pieces, original artwork, exquisite lighting, ancient tiles, linen drapes, and luxurious bedding. You will begin each day with a beautiful morning yoga practice in the panoramic sunroom facing the park.
The grand estate, recognized as a Heritage Site, spreads out over 28 hectares including vineyards, olive groves, and gardens with Villa del Cipressi centered as the crown jewel.
Just outside the villa are ancient coniferous and cypress trees, a rose garden, a lily pond with a fountain, a bamboo grove with an outdoor pizza oven, an expansive lawn, a swimming pool, and several cozy seating areas to relax, contemplate and enjoy the breathless views of the Verona Valley with a delicious glass of wine cultured right on the property.
All of this and more created a romantic, dream-like atmosphere in exclusive privacy. This property, at about 200 meters above sea level, is part of the Garda Lake Morainic amphitheater. The unique geological formation is composed of many horseshoe-shaped hills carved out by glaciers and streams 100,000 years ago. The special soil composition is a key to their world-renowned wines. Verona is to the East, Garda Lake to the West, and the Dolomites to the North.
The Landini family has owned this property since 1963. The Sparici-Landini motivating spirit is their love of the land, its vineyards, and olive groves. The founder of the wine resort was a woman, Maddalena, called “la Grisa”. Their 40 years of success in wine production is a synthesis of rich traditions developed over centuries, wisely measured modernism, and, most importantly, good soil. They harvest the finest selection of grapes for their boutique wines bunch by bunch by hand.
