Tasting Notes:

Extra virgin olive oil produced in small quantities from hand-picked olives and cold pressed within a few hours. Extremely refined, it offers a silky texture, a nose
of fresh herbs, green almonds and tomato leaves, with an elegant bitterness and a slightly peppery finish. It enhances dishes without overpowering them, perfect with raw fish and roasted vegetables. It is an exclusive, precise and expressive oil that gives dishes a unique signature.

La Corneta:

Rooted in Tuscany, in the heart of the prestigious Chianti Colli Aretini terroir, La Corneta bears the mark of time and the seasons. The wines are produced from 8 hectares of organically cultivated vineyards, where historic grape varieties coexist with rarer ones: Sangiovese, Pinot Noir, Syrah, Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc and Incrocio Manzoni. This diversity, combined with living soils and controlled yields, provides health and expressive raw materials. The approach is then based on rigorous vinification and careful selection of the containers for ageing: temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks, barriques and tonneaux of different sizes and vintages, terracotta and cocciopesto amphorae are tools that are used with precision. This meticulous, contemporary and demanding method is part of a constant search for balance, structure and natural complexity, without standardising taste.
