This year has been quite challenging: 3 extremely hot and dry months till September, with temperatures up to 42 celsius in the shade.

The olive trees went in protection mode and the fruits ended quite dry till about 2 weeks before harvest time at the end of October.
We had some rain mid october but it was too late to improve the quantity and had some impact on the quality of the olives.

Bottom line is that we had a small harvest and low yield, altogether 150 liters of Poggiarello EVO

Fortunately some of our friends in the valley have a very different soil, water availability and exposure. we are confident that we can offer local EVO of premium quality asap

Beyond Tuscany, we are in collaboration with mills and producers and our list of Italian EVO of quality will be soon on display on this site

we look after and live on our olive grove. we have perfected the many steps of cultivating the olive trees and producing the Extra Virgin Oil

we aim to produce our very own best Extra Virgin Oil, called Poggiarello. It is hand picked on our olive grove, milled on the field as quickly as possible after harvest and left to rest and sediment for a short period before being available to you!
This oil has very limited production, in 2021 we have produced only 150 liters

our experience and training as Olive Oil Sommelier make it possible for us to select the very best Extra Virgin Oils throughout Italy, our first selection is Olivello.
It is produced in Seggiano with mainly Leccino, Morraiolo and Frantoio cultivars. The extraction is done daily after harvest in a modern centrifugal mill and left to sediment naturally.
