​​​​History

Monterufoli, converted to organic farming since 2021, is located between Val di Cecina and Val di Cornia (Pisa). The estate is nestled inside a ​natutal park surrounded by a thousand hectares of uncontaminated nature, secular trees, a myriad of thermal springs and evocative vineyards, from which our Vermentino di Toscana and the iconic red Poggio Miniera are produced.

The historical building is located where the ancient railway station of the lignite mine used to be the terminus of the Casino di Terra - Monterufoli line. The same area was once owned by the Maffei, a wealthy Volterra family and later by the Gherardesca, the latter descendants of the most famous Count narrated in Dante's Divine Comedy.

    Tenuta di Monterufoli estate covers an area of 1,030 hectares of hills, within an altitude between 150 and 500 msl. In this beautiful scenario, you can discover many trails and walk in unexploited nature known for its soil full of minerals. Lignite and magnesite mines are good testimonies of old chalcedony quarries, stones used to produce unique mosaics, since​ ancient times.​​ A landscape of such beauty, convinced us to convert the whole estate to organic farming.
