Tenuta di Artimino centers on the Villa Medicea La Ferdinanda, built in 1596 for Ferdinando I de Medici on a historic Etruscan site, and it preserves Renaissance architecture and frescoes. The estate has been cultivated for centuries and its vineyards form part of the Carmignano and Chianti Montalbano terroirs, with a modern agricultural estate of several hundred hectares. The property was developed as a commercial winery and hospitality venue by the Olmo family in the 1980s, and today it is managed by the descendants Francesco Spotorno Olmo and Annabella Pascale. Villa La Ferdinanda and the Medici villas and gardens group were inscribed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2013, and the estate now combines wine production with tourism and olive oil making.
