About us
Agritourism on the Hills of Verona Organic
We are camilla and giovanni, two siblings united by a special bond and a common passion for our land. we want to share with you the story of our farmhouse in the hills of verona, a place that has always been part of our family.
For the past few years, we have become the custodians of this corner of paradise on the outskirts of Verona.
Initially, we both thought we would take different paths, but the call of the land è been irresistible. So we found ourselves turning our passion into an entrepreneurial adventure.
After receiving the baton from our mother Francesca, we have worked tirelessly to grow this agriturismo.
Over time we have formed a young and eager-to-learn team with which to work in the welcoming and warm atmosphere typical of Corte San Mattia.
Every year, together with our team, we add new elements to the agriturismo. We put no limits on ideas and creativity, always with a keen eye on sustainability.
We are happy to share with you our story and the love we feel for this agriturismo and our land.

Welcome to Corte San Mattia!
Our Story
The history of Corte San Mattia began back in 1920, when our grandfather bought the farm. Growing up, we heard the tales and stories of the inhabitants of our land. In those days, life revolved around the production of wine, oil, fruits and vegetables for the market in Verona's Piazza delle Erbe.
As the years went by, Grandpa introduced innovations such as electric light, waterworks and the first tractors, helping to modernize the countryside. His vision turned into reality when he built the road that still connects San Mattia to Verona.
After his passing in 1969, the farming business continued slowly until 1985, when our father Francesco realized his dream by opening a stud farm with a nationally prominent equestrian center. At that time, to house the students of the equestrian center, the Corte San Mattia farmhouse was also born, the first in Verona.

Unfortunately, a few years after our birth, our father became ill. Our extraordinary mother Francesca took over the business, improving and expanding the business. Thanks to her, the old floricultural greenhouses were renovated in 2006, creating rooms with a view of Verona.
When we grew up, our mother placed us in the business, passing on her experience. Since then, we have spearheaded remarkable changes, renovating vineyards, starting wine and oil production, and obtaining organic certification. In 2018, we inaugurated the new winery and built additional rooms.
Today, with our families by our side, we continue to pursue our dream. Corte San Mattia è has become a place where tradition blends with innovation, maintaining the authentic and passionate heart of our history.
