Tenuta Villa della Rosa is a winery, founded in Villamagna, a small medieval village, located 10 km from the white beaches of the Adriatic Sea and 10 km from the snow-capped peaks of the Majella mountain massif. Our philosophy comes from tradition, which has handed down to us the cultivation of roses in the vineyards, as a practice used since ancient times. The rose, an extremely sensitive plant, positioned at the beginning of the rows, monitors the health of the vine and helps the winemaker monitor and protect the vineyard, detecting any pathologies and encouraging rapid intervention. The uniqueness of our production lies in the craftsmanship of each step. In fact, each bottle is numbered and prepared individually by hand until the dried rose is positioned.Tenuta Villa della Rosa is a winery, founded in Villamagna, a small medieval village, located 10 km from the white beaches of the Adriatic Sea and 10 km from the snow-capped peaks of the Majella mountain massif.
