Fattoria Le Sorgenti

 

 

Sorgenti FarmHouse is located within one of the most evocative areas of river Arno valley, where the Florentine hills surround Florence.
The Farm House was built in 1585 as the chase-country house of Compiobbesi Family. Its severe XVI century architecture is softened by the mild colours and shades of the numerous trees around it.
The peaceful silence of the park brings you into the flavours of old traditions and give the Wines and the Olive-Oil here produced the most significant peculiar deep taste.
The Farm is surrounded by about 50 hectars of land growing mainly vines and olive-trees. From these lands at a height between the 200 and 400 mt by sea-level, the visitor gets a unique sightseeing: the whole city of Florence held within the splendid sunny valley of the river Arno.
Ferrari family personally follows all the phases of the production and considers this activity as a lifestyle. The whole family is deeply in love with earth and nature and their choice to limit the quantity of the Farm production reflects their will to favour the quality, the colours, the taste and the fragrances of their products.
