We're in modern times, the guy is eccentric, no slaves (sort of illegal here in USA), but he wants only stuff grown from that time period. Money = not an object. It just has to be able to survive in West-Central Florida, so wet, cool winters with few frost days and hot, drier but not parchingly dry summers. Land is fairly fertile and I believe our weather codnitions, while not strictly "Mediterranean", are close enough that most anything that can make it in a Roman villa in Italy could have made it here.
