Autumn at Viticcio is not only harvest time for grapes – it’s also the season of olive picking, a ritual that unites two extraordinary territories, Chianti Classico and Maremma, in one story of tradition, landscape, and sustainability.
In the Chianti Classico estate, olive trees grow alongside vineyards on gentle hills, while in Maremma they face the sea, caressed by mild winds and bright sunlight. Harvesting is carried out entirely by hand, using methods that respect the trees and allow the olives to be picked at the perfect stage of ripeness. It’s a patient and meticulous process that preserves both the quality of the fruit and the purity of the extra virgin olive oil.
The result is an oil that expresses the soul of its land: elegant, balanced, and fragrant in Chianti Classico; bold, savory, and sun-drenched in Maremma. Every drop captures the essence of the soil and the respect with which it is cultivated.
At Viticcio, olive harvesting is more than an agricultural practice – it is an act of love for nature, a commitment to sustainability, and a way to preserve the deep connection between people, landscape, and tradition.
