This olive is the highlight of Giachi's oil production. It is produced from the Frantoio and Moraiolo varieties in the high hills of Chianti Classico, with a pronounced calcareous soil. Here the olive tree produces very low yields and consequently a pithy oil with very low acidity. The characteristics of the oil can thus be preserved in the long term and a perfect balance between fullness of flavour and mildness is achieved. SUPERIORE.DE

For this oil the olives are picked exclusively by hand. A sub-game of it only 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 and thus separated from the amniotic fluid depot, which over time would affect the original quality.

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