Unfortunately it rained when we were there, so we did not come out to see the vineyards or olive trees. It is a very beautiful place with a beautiful history. The food was quite excellent and the wines tasted good. Very balanced. You don’t need the knowledge of wine to participate. There was a nice view from where we ate
We chose this winery after a careful selection among Google proposals in the area. A young company for years of activity, but born from an idea and work carried out by wise hands and brilliant minds. Breathtaking location! Marius guided us through the whole process: from hand-picking by expert experts in the field, to the selection of the bunches, to fermentation and bottling. Clear, poetic, funny and passionate in conversation, he accompanied us to lunch with tasting, which deserves sincere words of appreciation. A trained sommelier, a hard worker, a perfect room man and a gentleman who made our trip a meditative experience. Thank you Marius and thank you to Villa La Ripa for giving us the opportunity to live this moment.
Grazie di cuore per questa recensione così straordinariamente poetica, profonda e ricca di calore. Leggere che la visita a Villa La Ripa non è stata una semplice gita, ma un’esperienza meditativa, ci riempie di immenso orgoglio. Quando abbiamo dato vita a questo progetto, il nostro obiettivo era proprio questo: unire la scienza, la sapienza del fare il vino e la bellezza della nostra terra per offrire ai nostri ospiti qualcosa di unico, curato in ogni dettaglio, dalla vigna fino alla bottiglia e alla tavola. Sapere che ha percepito la passione e la cura che la nostra famiglia e le 'mani sagge' che ci supportano mettono in questo lavoro è il regalo più bello. I suoi bellissimi complimenti per Marius ci fanno davvero piacere: ha saputo incarnare perfettamente la filosofia di accoglienza e la dedizione che coltiviamo qui nella tenuta, dove ogni ospite deve potersi sentire accolto con eleganza e autenticità. Trasmetteremo sicuramente a lui e a tutto il team della cantina le sue splendide parole. Speriamo di potervi accogliere nuovamente in futuro per un altro momento di condivisione e relax tra i nostri vigneti di Arezzo. Un caro e affettuoso saluto, La Famiglia Luzzi & Il Team di Villa La Ripa
The best straw in his country's region in Tuscany...a wonderful place, a very high-level guided tour by Marius, great wine and excellent tastes. It's just a paradise. Don’t miss out on this trip.
From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with genuine warmth and hospitality. The staff were not only incredibly welcoming but impressively knowledgeable—sharing stories and insights that made the tasting feel personal and enriching. Lunch was a treat in itself—beautifully prepared, full of flavor, and perfectly paired with their selection of wines. Each glass offered something special, from crisp whites to bold reds, all showcasing the care and craft behind their winemaking. And just when we thought we’d seen it all, we discovered they also produce cosmetics made from grapes! A surprising and delightful twist that speaks to their creativity and passion for what they do. Highly recommended for anyone looking for an authentic and memorable tasting experience. 🍇✨
Super wine tasting, delicious food and not to forget a very interesting story about the place, its owner, and how the wine is made.
Kære Lotte, Tusind tak for din herlige anmeldelse og din flotte bedømmelse! Det glæder os utroligt meget at høre, at du nød vores vinsmagning, den lækre mad og historien om vores renæssancevilla. For os er det en stor glæde at dele fortællingen om stedet, vores familie og passionen bag vores vinproduktion med vores gæster. Vi håber, at du har taget nogle dejlige minder fra Toscana med dig hjem, og vi vil med glæde byde dig velkommen tilbage til Villa La Ripa en anden gang! De bedste hilsner, Familien Luzzi & Villa La Ripa-teamet
This must be the best €55 Euro per person we spent whilst visiting Tuscany Inita our guide took us on a journey of the history of the house and wine making in the region her knowledge and passion shone through the explanations of the food and wine was very interesting this is a small vineyard and you will not find the wine in supermarkets and chances are only in top end restaurants in Italy My wife is a vegetarian so she had a special Tuscany meal, so delicious we begged the recipe If you want also knowledge of Olives then here is where you go. End result I purchased 4 bottles of wine at €40 each and 2 tins [yes tins] of extra virgin olive oil €20 each.
Dear Guest, Thank you so much for this absolutely incredible 5-star review! Reading your words brings an immense amount of pride and joy to our entire family and team. We are thrilled that our Lunch Time Tasting was the best €55 per person you spent during your journey through Tuscany. Our kitchen team takes great pleasure in creating memorable, delicious experiences for everyone, and hearing that your wife loved her special vegetarian meal so much that you asked for the recipe is a wonderful compliment to our chef! A special thank you for highlighting the exclusivity of our production. You hit the nail on the head: as a boutique winery, we focus strictly on high-quality, limited-production wines that you will never find in commercial supermarkets, but rather in top-tier restaurants and specialty shops. Inita was deeply moved by your kind compliments. Blending the history of our Renaissance house with a genuine passion for food, wine, and olive oil is exactly the standard of hospitality we cultivate here as a team. We hope you are thoroughly enjoying your bottles of wine and extra virgin olive oil back home. Whenever you return to Tuscany, your Villa La Ripa family will be waiting to welcome you back! Warmest regards, The Luzzi Family & The Villa La Ripa Team
