Welcome! We are Ernesto, Mauro, Fiorella, and Rodrigo. Ours is a captivating family-owned company, where we take pride in sharing the fruits of our labor with a deep respect for the land and nature. Fiorella and Rodrigo take care of the splendid vegetable gardens, orchards, and olive groves, while Mauro and Ernesto focus on hospitality, catering, and service at the Red Tower.
The idea for this company stems from Mauro's desire to live a more authentic life in harmony with nature, leaving behind the beautiful but chaotic capital city and moving from Rome to Itri. Initially, only Fiorella was in charge of direct cultivation, but with the restoration of the ruins and the start of the "Red Tower" project, all family members became involved.
Our philosophy is based on the promotion of local products and the cherished traditions of the region. We have a deep respect for the surrounding nature and, therefore, follow its cycles and preserve its balance. For example, our crops are strictly seasonal, and we only use organic products, including the fertilizer provided by our three adorable donkeys: Ramona, Dora, and Paloma, who also help us keep the surrounding land clean.
With our project, we aim to spread knowledge and flavors of our region, from Roman times to the present day, with all the influences that have enriched us over the centuries. We offer a complete experience that engages all the senses, giving those who stay at the Red Tower the opportunity to live a unique experience in contact with the nature, history, and traditions of our region.
