Our Products (Wine and Olive Oil): La Fattoria di Ripa d'Orcia gets its name from the Castle of Ripa d'Orcia which has been the heart of the farm since the 13th century. In 1484 the farm was acquired by the noble Sienese family, Piccolomini, who are the present owners.
On its 300 hectares the fattoria has been producing fine wines and superb extra virgin olive oil for centuries combining the family traditions with modern methods of production. It is possible to purchase the farm produce. |
