We’ve always been here, on the Chianti slopes of Arezzo, in the land of Tuscany, at Villa La Ripa, a Renaissance villa not far from Florence and Sienna. Olive groves and vineyards all around us with their precious oil and wine: Sangiovese, Tiratari, Psyco, Spaziolibero.Rows and rows of Sangiovese, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Shiraz are well cared for with love and passion with respect for nature and environmental sustainability. The countryside is unique as it has remained unaltered for ages and deserves to be discovered, enjoyed and… tasted. It is recommended to all the lovers of wine tourism for unforgettable visits at the winery.

This was my second visit to Villa La Ripa. Both visits have been great experiences, enjoying the wonderful Tuscan scenery, hearing the amazing history of the villa, and tasting Saverio’s delicious wines and olive oil. A beautiful place, a gracious host, and outstanding Tuscan wines. What more can you ask for?

It is two generations since our family committed itself to truffles, at first as truffle hunters, then in a more organized and professional way, building a family-run agricultural business in order to improve and commercialize the sale of truffles. Our truffles are grown in Tuscany, which is well known around the world for its beautiful countryside as well as its wine and food products. Thanks to the truffle farming and the knowledge of the best truffle production areas, Villa Magna farm can guarantee the sale of fresh truffles all year long, with the possibility of organic certification, as well as a selection of conserved products. With the experience and professionalism earned through the years we have launched a new form of rural tourism, accompanying those who are interested in learning the secrets of truffle hunting to an expedition along with our dogs (Lula, Rambo, Luna, Dora); thus the tartufiturismo was born. You can share and enjoy with us an exclusive tour around the Arezzo, Siena, Florence hills hunting for truffle.

Giorgio Vasari was an an accomplished artist, architect and writer, most famous today for the Vasari corridor, linking two palaces in Florence and his book on the lives of painters, sculptors and architects. His house is beautiful and filled of art from the 1500s. We had the whole place to ourselves, which made it easier to appreciate the masterpieces on display. There is also a peaceful garden with a fish pond. Arezzo itself is full of interesting buildings and a relief from the bustle of Florence.
