Azienda Agricola Villa Papiano, situated in Modigliana, extends on the south slope of Mount Chioda at an altitude of 450 meters above sea level from the mountain to the bottom of the valley, to the river Ibola.
The total area is of approximately 60 hectares, of which 10 are vineyards and the remainders are divided among olive groves, arable land and forests.
The absolute peculiarity of the habitat, the fertility of the soil, the geographical location of the Tuscan–Romagna Appennine and the specificity of the vineyards prompted us to carry out an ambitious wine and of environmental recovery project.
The professionalism of the group, agronomic research united to the interest for innovation are the cornerstones of the project of Villa Papiano.
Papiano is a frontier settlement, built in the second half of the fourteenth century under the rule of the Medici family.
Villa Papiano is a small stone castle, which followingly belonged to the Papiani family, nobles of Modigliana, who in the late seventeenth century was enhanced by a village with houses and a small church at the service of the structure, becoming witness to a transformation from frontier garrison to a center of agricultural, farming and wood exploitation activities.
Even today you can breathe the air of yesteryear, as it has remained untouched by the presence of man, and dominates a large valley of fields and woods.
