Paolo Vassallo’s old palazzo stands above all other structures on this part of the mountain; built at the beginning of the twentieth century, the estate produced enormous quantities of wine before the palazzo was commandeered as a military outpost and hospital during WWII. When reopened after decades of neglect, medical gear was found throughout. Paolo and his brother Corrado Vassallo now operate the palazzo-palmento as a boutique hotel, and a family museum houses ancient artifacts discovered on the estate.
