The Renaissance villa was build on project by Andrea Palladio for bishop Paolo Almerico, around 1570, used then as family home.

This building influenced Thomas Jefferson when he designed Monticello, his home, and the University of Virginia library.

The setting is fantastic, south of Vicenza, walking distance from downtown it’s already in the countryside on a low hill.

Outdoor visits are €5 per person (every day except on Mondays). Indoor visits are allowed only on Wednesdays and Saturdays. Outdoor and Indoor visits are €10 per person. Check the official website for more details.

Be aware there is very little parking there! Best to leave the car alongside the Riviera Berica road or at the Benza gas station (just when it’s closed).

It’s suggested to combine this visit with the Valmarana villa 5 min walk down the road, which has even a cafe terrace.

La Pria Organic Winery: Wine Tasting Experience

La Pria Organic Winery: Wine Tasting Experience

In the hills of Colli Berici sits La Pria Organic Winery with architecture dating back to the 15th century. Here in the town of Alonte, you’ll find a winery ready to cater to all your wine and horseback riding preferences. With a rustic, yet Roman feel to the place, you’ll want to return time and time again to sip on one of their fine Prosecco DOCs under the ancient barn, or lounge about the pool in the summertime before heading off for a ride on horseback through the vineyards. Our visit to La Pria Winery was handled by Rino, whose knowledge for the wine business and attention to detail sets this winery apart from others. Rino, co-owner of the winery, is very involved in the town, wine marketing, and even came up with the idea for the brochure, that resembles a passport, containing information about the winery and a tasting guide (available in English!). The first thing you’ll notice upon entering the gates and parking in the winery is the large barn. Referred to as barchessa, this ancient barn dates back to the 15th century. It houses the wine tastings, rooms, and wine shop, along with a pool to the […] MoreTweet

To get there, you will drive the Italian backroads, maybe even passing a tractor or two along the way. When you pull into the driveway, you can’t miss the large two-story traditional villa with the warm and welcoming facade. It’s hard to imagine that, up until it was re-purposed as a bed and breakfast 5 years ago, the structure was used simply for storage on the farm.   Brothers, Zeno and Piero, and their sister, Arianna, oversee every aspect of this agriturismo. All three are incredibly interesting and friendly – yet each is very different from the others. Zeno was our point of contact and tour guide for the day. He enthusiastically expressed his eagerness to share his beautiful farm with our readers, especially folks from the United States and abroad. Piero has visited 47+ states in America, and there’s a good chance he’s visited your home state at one time or another. He’ll happily strike up a conversation with you about any of them. Arianna is the sweet soul among the siblings, constantly […] MoreTweet
