La Selva – a particularly attractive Tuscany holiday domicile in many aspects. Its strategic location in the triangle between Florence, Arezzo and Siena above the Ambra valley (Valdambra) had already lead Etruscans and Romans to first settlements, fortifications and first wine growing. A big number of archaeological finds, ancient bridges, roads and boroughs once fortified are testimonials of its history. In medieval times this border line area with many fortifications all over the valley between the cities mentioned above has seen a lot of important battles. Also La Selva itself in those days has been a watchtower for the defence of the entry to the rich Ambra valley. Florence, however, succeeded in getting hold of the upper valley step by step, and finally La Selva became property of the well-known Florentine Medici family. Latest at that stage wine growing in this area has been documented, given the Medici family’s preference for wines of the Valdambra area and in particular this wine growing estate. All owners that followed have kept alive this tradition cultivating best quality wines. Nowadays the some 80 hectares of Villa La Selva close to Montebenichi border on the Southern Chianti Classico, in an area particularly rich of pastureland and woods which give this landscape a wild and unspoilt touch. In 1954 the Carpini family bought La Selva estate, full scale wine production has been resumed in 1988. The old stone buildings of the estate meanwhile have been completely restored.
