Villa La Ripa
Villa La Ripa, located in an area of Tuscany that is a hidden gem, is a small producer of wine and olive oil. They are located in the heart of the area of Tuscany that offers a land rich in art, history, science and magic. A landscape of rare charm dotted with medieval parish churches and castles, inhabited by the Etruscans and Romans. The vineyards are where the footsteps of Piero della Francesca, Signorelli, Michelangelo, Masaccio, Cimabue, Petrarca meeting Guido Monaco, Giorgio Vasari, Francesco Redi all walked and thrived throughout history. Villa La Ripa is located in Antria, at the foot of Arezzo in the most hidden and fascinating Tuscany. Not far from Florence and Siena, the province offers extraordinary cultural and landscape attractions, without the confusion that reigns in summer in other areas of Tuscany. At Villa La Ripa the art of the vineyard has been handed down for centuries. The ancient Renaissance farmhouse, built around a tower from the year 1000, and the fine cellar are nestled in the rolling hills of Chianti di Arezzo, near Siena and Florence, in the heart of Tuscany.
