Fattoria Selvapiana

Fattoria Selvapiana occupies a historic Rufina property that began as a medieval watchtower and later became a Renaissance villa. Michele Giuntini acquired it in 1827, and the Giuntini family has guided the estate through five generations. Federico and Silvia Giuntini Masseti have managed the estate since 1997.

Organic farming began in the Fornace vineyard in 1990 and was extended to the other vineyards and olive groves. Its Chianti Rufina wines ferment with native yeasts in steel or concrete, with long skin contact before oak ageing. The single-vineyard Bucerchiale Riserva, introduced in 1979, remains the estate’s flagship.
