to Pisa in Tuscany. Acquired by Umberto
Menghi in 1989 the estate was renovated and
opened in 1993. The vines were planted in
1990 on 22 hectares of vineyards in prime
slopes surrounding the Villa. The wines show
the influence of the coastal climate and are a
reflection of the romance and flavours of
Tuscany.
