Fattoria Bini

Fattoria Bini is located in the Chianti area, a few miles from Florence in the heart of Tuscany, a natural and historic environment. It has been passed from generation to generation, and today it is led by Elena and Francesca Bini Moriani, who continue, year after year, in their meticulous work of restoration and modernization. The historical site of the farm, today family residence, is the Villa Terraio, a five hundred years old villa, with a beautiful Italian style garden. The villa, located in the Florentine hills, is surrounded by the vineyards and olive groves of the Fattoria Bini and accompanied by Borgo San Giusto, hospitality venue also ideal for meetings, shows, and private receptions. The Villa Terraio is surrounded by a beautiful forest, consisting mainly of tall oak trees, where you can often see rare birds of prey flying undisturbed. In the mid-nineties, the Bini Family started a significant reforestation intervention. Since then, more than 15,000 trees (including walnuts, oaks, ash trees and cypresses) have been planted over 50 hectares, allowing the regeneration of the original rural environment. Today it is possible to see deer wandering in the woods. The origins and history of the Fattoria Bini are connected to the history of the Grand Dukedom of Tuscany. In the historical period from Pietro Leopoldo to Leopoldo II of Lorraine, 1765-1790, the Bini Family, originally from Livorno, began to focus on agriculture. Mariano, a wine merchant, moved to Empoli in 1789 to buy a small farm and adopt the latest cultivation techniques from Cosimo Ridolfi. The purchase of the Villa Terraio and surrounding farms date back to 1880. The Villa was the residence of the historic Florentine family De’Cerchi in the early sixteenth century.

Agricola Losi

Overlooking the medieval town of Siena, on the Chianti hills, the Losi estate enjoys a privileged location thanks to a unique microclimate, excellent sunlight exposure, and soil perfectly balancing stone and clayey elements. The history of the Losi family dates back to 1870s, and it remains one of the most genuine and charming artisanal producers among the narrow circle of prestigious families forming the historic Chianti Classico Consortium, globally recognized for producing some of the finest wines and olive oils. In 1954, the Losi bought part of the grounds owned by the Chartusian monastery of Pontignano, and in the 60s they joined the Chianti Classico Consortium. Since then, Pietro and Paolo Losi have continued the family tradition by continuously improving the quality of their wines and olive oils with hard-work and investments over time. Today, Riccardo and Valeria, Pietro’s children, work alongside Pietro and Paolo to further develop their family business, knowing they will pass it to their children so that the Losi tradition can continue for future generations to come.
While investing in new technologies, the Losi remain farmers and artisanal producers at heart, who seek quality through hard-work, passion for excellence and the preservation of straightforward but essential family traditions of ancient origins.

Casa Pietraia

Located on the top of a hill dominating the entire Val d’Elsa, Casa Pietraia includes an ancient farmstead or casa colonica a barn, a 15 metres infinity pool and a private garden and olive orchards surrounding the whole structure. The family owning and managing Casa Pietraia has chosen to follow organic methods and not to use pesticides and chemicals to respect the environment and because they believe that olive oil should not only be good but also healthy.
The olives are picked and taken to the mill on the same day where they are pressed mechanically in the latest generation of mills. The oil is then filtered to prevent any residues from fermenting and spoiling the taste. It is clear with a hint of yellow and reflections of green, with fruity fragrance and scents of artichoke, grass and fresh almond.

Fattoria Ramerino

Fattoria Ramerino is located in the hills to the south of Florence, in the municipality of Bagno a Ripoli, in the heart of Tuscany – an area dedicated to agricultural activity since ancient Roman times. In the days of feudalism, the land surrounding the Tuscan capital was considered the ‘vegetable garden’ of the city, and was the source of all fresh produce sold in the city’s markets.
Fattoria Ramerino’s property extends for circa 50 Ha that are predominantly dedicated to the cultivation of olives. The terrain, renowned for both olive and vine-growing, lies at 250m above sea level and benefits from ideal exposure to the sun. These factors, combined with traditional cultivation methods, allow the olive trees to thrive. The olive grove’s heritage is represented by varieties native to central Tuscany, namely Moraiolo, Frantoio, Leccino and Americano, with around 5500 trees – some of which are centuries-old -grown using the polyconic vase system.

La Ranocchiaia

La Ranocchiaia is a dream come true for Gian Luca and Judyta. Driven by an intense love for the countryside, many years ago, they left their city jobs to dedicate themselves to the vineyards and olive groves they wanted so much. The farm is certified organic and situated on the Chianti Classico hills nearby San Casciano in Val di Pesa and is comprised of over 35 acres and more than 5,000 olive trees. The dominant cultivars (the type of olives) are typical (and rare) Tuscan varieties: Moraiolo, Leccino, Pendolino, Frantoio, Correggiolo, and Leccio del Corno. All olive orchards are relatively old, cultivated with traditional methods, with no artificial irrigation, on relatively steep inclines. That means that farming is harder, but it also means that the resulting olive oil is higher in quality olive oil thanks to the unique local microclimate.
All olives are picked early with traditional methods, temporarily stored in small open cases, and milled within hours, to best maintain their freshness. All olives are processed in the certified organic latest technology estate mill run by master millers Gian Luca and Judyta. Experience, knowledge, and passion enable Judyta and Gian Luca to produce some of the best and most awarded olive oil in the world, with unique nutraceutical properties. The olive oil extraction process does not include added water (aka "two phases" extraction) and relies on water naturally present in the olives to facilitate the production of olive oil. This process results in extra virgin olive oil with lower oxidation and higher polyphenols content, but also in lower yield. The olive oil mill is one of the most technologically advanced available today, a Mori-TEM (Toscana Enologica Mori) designed for high-quality small-batch production. Once extracted, the olive oil is immediately filtered to remove impurities and preserve all freshness and stored in stainless steel containers under inert gas to minimize oxidation. Gian Luca and Judyta sacrifice quantity (yield) to preserve freshness and antioxidants to produce a nutraceutical extra virgin olive oil. La Ranocchiaia Estate and Mill are certified organic.
