About Us
When we bought Villa Riparbella, we didn’t just acquire a home—we became stewards of a legacy dating back to 1207, with over 800 years of history and 27 generations before us. Now, it is our responsibility to honor and continue this heritage, preserving its traditions while sharing its story with those who appreciate the timeless beauty of Tuscany. By becoming a member of Club 100, you too become part of this journey, connected to the land, its history, and the future we are building together.
Our Story
Where It All Began
Riparbella is more than just a villa—it is a story of tradition, craftsmanship, and the timeless beauty of Tuscany. Founded in 1207, the land was first home to Bibbiano, Fugano, and Maria, whose legacy still echoes through the rolling hills and ancient olive groves. For centuries and generations, this land has been cultivated with care, producing some of the finest extra virgin olive oil in Italy.
Our journey at Riparbella is rooted in this deep history, blending time-honored techniques with a modern passion for quality. Every olive tree tells a story, and through Club 100, we invite you to become part of this legacy—connecting to the land, the tradition, and the purest flavors of Tuscany.
“Sometimes, life leads you where you never planned to go, and that’s where the magic happens.”

In the Spotlight
By The Numbers
Established in the historic year of 1207, Riparbella has a legacy that spans centuries. With over 300 thriving trees, we take pride in cultivating four distinct varieties of olives (Frantoio, Leccino, Moraiolo, & Pendolino), each contributing to the rich tapestry of our organic offerings. Our commitment to organic farming practices ensures that every olive is nurtured with care, reflecting the purity and authenticity of our land. Join us in celebrating a tradition that honors the past while embracing the future, as we continue to share the fruits of our labor with you.
