For centuries a residence of the aristocracy – princesses, marquises, sultans and tsars. And since 1873, an elegant and charming five-star resort; one of the most celebrated in the world. Luxury lake views exemplify the art of living well in a suggestive experience that fills the eyes and inspires the mind.
Dinner time. We get ready, we cross the majestic rooms to reach a view that has no equal in the world. A “Bellini” on the terrace while the sun sets on the lake. And after a dream, another dream, the exclusive hospitality of the Veranda restaurant. Almost a theatrical scene: a ballet of maîtres and sommeliers attentive to your every wish.
With these Wine Dinners, a series of unique and unforgettable events in which iconic wines meet elegant haute cuisine, Villa d'Este pays homage to Italian food and wine excellence.
