The history
Villa Bibbiani was constructed in the mid 1700’s by the noble Frescobaldi family. Later, a prominent politician from a neighboring city, Marquis Cosimo Ridolfi married into the Frescobaldi family and assumed a prominent role at the villa. Cosimo Ridolfi, known as the father of modern Italian agriculture, curated and planted stunning botanical gardens containing more than 3,000 unique and exotic species of plants and trees.

The chapel
The chapel is one of few consecrated private chapels in Italy and is original to the Villa. Consecrated by Pope Clemente XII, the chapel has been restored to its original splendor and the last Marquesa Frescobaldi is entombed herein.
Sacred art
The intimate chapel space makes a distinct impression with its exquisite detail and majestic, sacred Italian art. The masterful finishings and stately stained glass give the chapel a rich, hallowed glow.
The botanical park
Villa Bibbiani park is a botanical treasure designed by Marquis Cosimo Ridolfi who, in the mid-nineteenth century, also initiated the estate’s winemaking. You can still admire these lush Italian gardens, edged by grassy meadows and forest that boast countless age-old and exotic species transplanted from around the world.
The winery
Villa Bibbiani’s winery is housed in the ancient basement of Cosimo Ridolfi. In 1800, it was considered a state of the art structure with running water and was equipped with a heating system that allowed temperature control during the winemaking.
Currently the wineries have been renovated and equipped with innovative systems that allow the most up-to-date winemaking techniques, preserving the tradition. The use of the force of gravity between different levels, from the arrival of the grapes in the cellar to the placement in the barrel, is for us today, as in the past, the best solution to move the wine. The research and study of new solutions to obtain wines of the highest quality have always permeated the walls of this winery. Innovate our tradition.
