The Cosimo Maria Masini farm is located on the hills of San Miniato, an ancient medieval village in the heart of Tuscany, in the province of Pisa, along the route of the Via Francigena, land of Wines and White Truffle. The estate, owned by the Masini family since 2000, extends over a single hillock, 40 hectares of vineyards, olive groves and arable land. Villa la Selva, the heart of the estate, is an ancient dwelling that already belonged to the Buonaparte family, then purchased in the mid-nineteenth century by Marquis Cosimo Ridolfi, the founder of the Faculty of Agriculture at the University of Pisa, who began to apply innovative techniques to the vineyards and built the winemaking cellar currently in use.

Doing agriculture following the biodynamic method has made it possible to see the production process with different eyes. Bringing more balanced grapes to maturity, thanks to biodynamics, led us to look for a winemaking method that would preserve their characteristics. So, year after year, we began to eliminate oenological aids such as enzymes, tannins and selected yeasts.

Our role has therefore become that of sensitive interpreters who, thanks to modern knowledge, can manage fermentations in a non-invasive way, giving consumers authentic wines that are ambassadors of the territory, born from an exclusively natural process.
