Abruzzo is often called the “greenest region in Europe,” with more than a third of its land protected as national parks. Right alongside those mountains and forests, you’ll find some of Italy’s most characterful wines - and wine hotels. One of our all-time favourites is
Castello di Semivicoli. A former 17th-century baronial palace where you nowadays can experience both the region’s natural beauty and its winemaking traditions.
The castle rises above the rolling hills with sweeping views of vineyards, olive groves, and even the Adriatic on a clear day. Inside, it combines history with understated elegance: vaulted ceilings, stone walls, and rooms that balance heritage with comfort.
Wine, of course, is at the heart of it. Guests can taste Masciarelli’s acclaimed labels in the ancient cellars, tour the surrounding vineyards, or linger over long dinners where local flavours meet bold Abruzzo reds. In our opinion, the perfect way to live inside the story of Abruzzo’s wine culture.
