Embark on a journey to uncover the secrets of Extra Virgin Olive Oil (EVO) production and refine your tasting skills in the enchanting setting of Tenuta Torciano estate, nestled in the heart of Tuscany. Begin your exploration with a comprehensive introduction to the world of extra virgin olive oil in our region. Gain insights into the techniques of olive collection, the diverse varieties of olive trees in Tuscany, and the philosophy guiding our production.
Our olives hail from select groves in Tuscany's Chianti Classico and Florence hills, laying the foundation for our premium extra-virgin olive oil with a distinct identity. True to Tuscan tradition, our olive oil is crafted exclusively from specific olive varietals and meticulously hand-harvested.
Following the daily hand-picking ritual, the olives undergo pressing in a certified olive press. The extraction process is executed with expert knowledge and profound passion, all under our careful supervision. Immediate pressing ensures a product of unparalleled freshness, preserving the unadulterated flavors and aromas.
Dive into a technical tasting session featuring ten varieties, revealing a captivating spectrum of aromas and flavors, including Chianti Classico DOP, Toscana IGP, 100% Italian Blend, Extra Virgin Selected Olive Oil, and six distinctive aromatic oils. Learn not only how to appreciate each oil in the kitchen but also about the varietals and cultivation techniques. This experience provides a unique opportunity to discern the subtleties between mass-produced olive oils and the authentic, top-quality traditional local varieties.
