Olive Oil

The Fanti family owns over 8,500 olive trees of typical Tuscan varieties, all planted in the hilly areas of the estate. The extra virgin olive oil is produced in the estate's traditional oil mill, where the olives are processed at room temperature to preserve their natural flavours. Multi-layered and of powerful finesse with aromas of freshly cut grass, notes of honey and sultanas. The flavour is peppery and spicy. SUPERIORE.DE

The fruit for this oil is harvested by hand in the first decade of November. Immediately after harvesting, the oil is cold-pressed to preserve the fresh flavours of the not fully ripened fruit. Before bottling, the oil is filtered through cotton wool to separate it from the fruit water deposit, which would affect the original quality over time.

This piquant olive oil impresses with its extremely low acidity and excellent flavour. It is a true speciality of the Giachi house, for which they have received worldwide recognition. SUPERIORE.DE

The olives from the Uccelliera farm grow near Castelnuovo dell'Abate, are carefully hand-picked and immediately cold-pressed to preserve the aroma and fruity flavour. It is a rather mildly spicy olive oil with a very fruity flavour, medium spiciness and a pleasant softness on the palate. SUPERIORE.DE

The olives for this oil are picked exclusively by hand. Some of them are only picked in December. Immediately after harvesting, the olives are ground and cold-pressed to preserve the characteristics of the fruit in the oil. Before bottling, the oil is filtered through cotton wool to separate it from the fruit water deposit, which would affect the original quality over time.

The higher degree of ripeness of the olives achieved by the late harvest guarantees the production of an olive oil with a distinctly soft and delicate character. SUPERIORE.DE

The olive oil from the legendary Tenuta San Guido is in no way inferior to the world-famous wines, reflecting the multi-layered soul of the winery. The Leccino, Moraiolo, Pendolino and Frantoio varieties thrive on around 110 hectares of olive groves in Bolgheri near Livorno. On the demanding soil, the trees are not arranged in the traditional way, but grow in rows between fields and vineyards, as is typical of Tuscan agriculture.

This outstanding Olio di Oliva Extra Vergine, which is obtained exclusively by mechanical means, is greenish-yellow in colour with shimmering reflections. Its flavour is balanced yet complex. This promise is 100% fulfilled on the palate: spicy, peppery notes, hints of almonds and a surprisingly fruity finish. It goes perfectly with bruschetta, fagioli all'olio and grilled fish.

Petrolo's organically cultivated olive groves cover around 15 hectares with around 3,000 trees on hilly, loamy and stony soil. Typical regional varieties such as Frantoio, Leccino and Moraiolo thrive on the terraced cultivation areas. The olive oil is exclusively cold-pressed and gently extracted from the fruit. The blend of the three varieties is reflected in a stimulating, fresh colour. Stimulating tart and green notes on the nose. This classic composition of medium intensity gives the olive oil a tangy and grassy flavour with a slightly peppery note. SUPERIORE.DE
