We grow our olive-trees on the hills around Chianciano between the Val di Chiana and the Val d’Orcia where conditions are ideal for olive production. The fields where the trees grow are cleaned with natural techniques : we use organic products as manuring and cupric ones against dangerous parasites, to keep natural biological balance.
A selective olive picking (only the good ones) takes place from October to November ,also with the choice of specific trees .Few hours after the picking olives are pressed by our own olive-mill.
The first squeezed olive oil decants naturally without the use of refining techniques.
The olive oil is then preserved in steel casks under nitrogen to avoid air contact and at a controlled temperature to avoid its freezing ; this care is necessary to maintain the high organoleptic characteristics of our olive oil.
Besides a very low acidity our olive oil has excellent organoleptic properties such as an intense fruit scent and the right bitter and spicy taste typical of the best tuscan oils.
Its golden color with greenish reflections makes is also very pleasant to look at.
