Podere Riparbella is run by a passionate couple, Veronica Malzacher and Christian Prohaska, who bring a wealth of experience to their winemaking venture. Veronica has a rich background in hospitality, having established a pasta production company and a sales business for Italian specialties in Switzerland. Christian, an architect with a focus on renovating homes and hotels, has also studied winegrowing and enology extensively. Their combined expertise creates a welcoming atmosphere for all visitors.

Exceptional Wine Tastings

Since 1993, the vineyards at Podere Riparbella have been cultivated organically, and the farmhouse has been thoughtfully renovated to accommodate guests. The winery produces wines from the Costa Toscana appellation, featuring grape varieties such as Sangiovese, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Pinot Nero, and Vermentino. These grapes are carefully processed in their cellar to create high-quality red and white wines that reflect the unique terroir of the region.

With new vineyards added in 1995 and accommodations available since 1997, Podere Riparbella offers a delightful experience for wine lovers and travelers alike. Come and enjoy the beauty of Tuscany while savoring exceptional wines crafted with care.
