La Collina degli Olivi, "The Olive Hill", is situated in the heart of Tuscan Maremma, near the ancient Etruscan city of Roselle in the province of Grosseto.

It is a family-run business with just over 11 hectares of land dedicated almost exclusively to the cultivation of olives.

The farm uses organic agriculture cultivation methodologies. This forbids the use of chemical fertilizers and pesticides in conformity to regulations passed by the European Community.

The principle varieties present are typically Tuscan: the Frantoiano, Leccino, Moraiolo and Pendolino.

The olives are harvested manually, usually during the first half of October, and pressed on the same day by the Tuscan College of Olive Cultivators OL.MA. following specific guidelines for organically grown olives.
A golden yellow oil with subtle green highlights is extracted; limpid, almost brilliant.
The aroma recalls an freshly pressed olive with a hint of herbs.

The extravirgin olive oil possesses a combination of flavours: a pinch of bitterness, an elegant touch of a biting flavour, delicate presence of spicy undertones and a masterful hint of artichoke.

The extravirgin olive oil produced is qualified by the Tuscan Denomination and the Geographically Protected Specification obtained by organic agriculture.

A newly-restored building dedicated to guests with swimming pool is perched on the summit of the hill. Guests, in addition to enjoying the spectacular view of the entire olive grove, can also enjoy ‘hands on’ participation in olive cultivation, picking and pressing.
