Oil, Cheese and Wine in Chianti - Half day
This excursion begins in the heart of the Tuscan oil kingdom - the hills around Impruneta, were we’ll visit the Torrerossa oil farm. Here the olives are still collected by hand with the help of wood ladders leaning against the olive branches. Torrerossa still owns an old oil press, the oil is stored in antique enormous terracotta jars manufactured in Impruneta. On S.Casciano hills, in the Chianti DOCG production area, we found the Corzano e Paterno winery and cheese farm,specialized in the production of cheeses with traditional methods, using the milk from the farm's sheep. You will also taste their excellent wines.
