On the 3 april 1554 a Sienese and French army attacked and destroyed the castle of La Selva at the time a Medici property
The Castle in the 18th century was converted into a bella Villa by the Marchese Piuma and then passed by the Count Ferniani
The scenery around is typical of the pictures painted by the Renaissance artists
Is now property of another illustrious family: i Carpini .
Wine-making is the unbroken thread that runs through countless generations, as far back as 1245; an enterprising friar called Giovanni Carpini was sent by Papa Innocent IV to the Emperor of Cathay bearing a gift of rare Tuscan rootstock.
Today's descendants, Sergio and Riccardo Carpini, after brilliant careers as fabric makers to all the top fashion designers in the world, are putting Villa La Selva through a monumental restoration, of the vineyards, the villas and the winery .
