Other Information

Our farm produces an high quality extra virgin olive oil. The old farm tools have given way to advanced techniques while losing nothing of the traditional art of olive oil production. These modern tools respect and safeguard all the natural characteristics of the freshly harvested olive and prevent any alteration from occurring during the production process.
The olives are picked manually from the trees and carried to the press within 48 hours.
The oil is extracted with cold working (without chemical solvents). It has a fresh flavor, a very fruity, spicy, intense and savory olive oil characterized by sweet and bitter features.
Olive oil is the principal source of fat in the Mediterranean diet. It is mainly used for dressing dishes, and its nutritional qualities seem to be responsible for decreasing cancer and cardiovascular diseases in populations who use it in preference to other dressings rich in saturated fats, both of animal and vegetable origin.
Our farm produces also a good red wine from "sangiovese" and "montepulciano" grapes and jams.

You can sell our products in the farm.

We offer a bottle of our wine to all the guest of the farm
