The territory

Few geographical areas in the world can boast an environmental and natural heritage like the province of Siena. A rural network which has been masterfully shaped through the centuries by man and dotted with a dense system of small centres each one preserving important historical and artistic recollections.

In the area of Siena the olive tree is the main feature in rural economy and gastronomic tradition. Not only, it also has an extremely important role in environment, landscape and culture.

There are many different varieties, the predominant being the typical Tuscan ones (Frantoio, Correggiolo, Moraiolo, Leccino, Pendolino) together with others of less productive importance. Thanks to these many varieties the olive oil produced offers an extraordinary range of flavour and aroma.
