In the green heart of the island of Ischia, along the provincial road Forio – Panza<\/strong>, lies the historic Tenuta Calitto<\/strong>, a place steeped in charm and tradition, dominated by the imposing view of Mount Epomeo<\/strong>. At the centre of the estate stands the famous Palazzo Piromallo<\/strong>, recognisable by its deep Pompeian red<\/strong>, a symbol of elegance and historical memory.<\/p>

Built between the end of the 18th and the beginning of the 19th century, the palace stands on an ancient 17th-century hunting lodge, once belonging to the del Vasto family, linked to the hunting reserves of the Aragonese kings. After a series of changes of ownership, it was the Pezzillo family<\/strong>, one of the most influential in Forio, that transformed these lands into a landmark for local viticulture.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

With the marriage of Luisa Pezzillo Rodero<\/strong> and the Neapolitan Count Giacomo Piromallo, the estate experienced a new splendour: the palace was enlarged and her son, Giuseppe Piromallo Capece Piscicelli<\/strong>, founded a modern wine-making establishment<\/strong> there. Over time, the structure underwent changes, including partial reconstruction after the 1883 earthquake, the addition of a wooden chalet<\/strong> and the construction of a private chapel<\/strong>.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Today, Tenuta Calitto<\/strong> has been reborn thanks to the vision and commitment of the D’Ambra sisters<\/strong>, who have transformed the historic residence into a refined wine resort & spa<\/strong>. Surrounded by historic vineyards<\/strong> and breathtaking views, the estate has become an oasis of hospitality, wellness and taste, where tradition merges with the excellence of Ischian hospitality<\/strong>.<\/p>

Through a project that enhances the agricultural and cultural identity of the place, the D’Ambra sisters have given Tenuta Calitto<\/strong> back its leading role in the story of authentic Ischia<\/strong>, making it today an exclusive destination for those seeking experiences linked to wine, history and natural wellness.<\/strong><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
