Olio extra Vergine di Oliva

This oil has a beautiful green color, fresh fragrances of grass, artichokes and green tomato. It has a firm taste, sharp, slightly bitterish flavour and full bodied, thanks to the attention used by the production process. It keeps for a long time all the features present during the grindings. The Olio Extra Vergine di Oliva La Scheggiolla derives from more or less 180 olive plants from our little farm in Castelnuovo B.ga Siena.

The coltivated varieties are Leccino, and some plants of Moraiolo and Frantoiano. The latter represents the 80% of the total and it is the typical variety of that area representing the most interesting oil type in Tuscany. The olives dimension is middle sized and the produced oil has a very individual flavour. The remaining two varieties completes and refines the typical features of Tuscany oil.

The olives are still collected manually when they are still green, advancing the normal collection time of more or less 15 days; this penalizes somehow the output, but it is an advantage for the organoleptic features of this oil.
