The project
Maso Maroni is located on the hills north of Verona, at an altitude of approximately 300 m above sea level, and precisely in the hamlet of Maroni above the small village of Santa Maria in Stelle.
Its exposure and the flow of air currents coming from the south during the day and from the north during the night generate temperature changes that allow the grapes to enjoy a microclimate that is always dry and ventilated.
The composition of the soil is silty clayey with a high limestone content and is rich in organic substance. The entire area is terraced, supported by the classic marogne typical dry stone walls, the characteristic example of rural architecture of Valpolicella.
The search for quality begins in the vineyard. From clonal selection following the choice of the best rootstock, through winter pruning with respect for the resting times of the vine, subsequently careful management of the greenery and the harvest of the best grapes.
The Guyot system with Corvina, Corvinone and Rondinella was planted with a density of approximately 5000 vines/ha.
The project is therefore a combination of valorisation of the territory both from an agricultural and hospitality point of view.
Here in Contrada Maroni there is in fact Maso Maroni Wine Retreat, a renovated jewel exemplary of typical historical rural architecture.
During the renovation, the exact measurements were respected, the ceiling with exposed beams, while the floors and walls of the bathroom are in Lessinia stone.
The Maso Maroni Wine Retreat is the perfect destination for a truly intimate couple’s stay, away from everything and close only to nature.
In light of the satisfaction obtained from hospitality, Maso Maroni Agriturismo in Sezano was also developed, a complex consisting of 3 bedrooms, breakfast room, swimming pool and garden.
