Our Extra-virgin olive oil
The tasting of Tuscan organic extra virgin olive oil at Podere Conca
Podere Conca organic extra virgin olive oil comes from the varieties Frantoio, Moraiolo and Leccino.
Harvest takes place from the end of October to the first days of November.
The result is a yellow-green oil with golden reflections that has a fruity character to the nose and a light note of artichoke: a worthy example of Tuscan excellence.
Thanks to the wine tasting at Podere Conca, you will have the opportunity to visit one of the old farmhouses, which in the past belonged to the historical family of Della Gherardesca, Lords of the Bolgheri and Castagneto Carducci area since 1000.
The farmhouse – located in the countryside rich in vineyards and olive trees facing the via Bolgherese – is one of the very few to still have stone walls and traditional red wooden shutters, also depicted on the logo of the company; now it is owned by Cirri family, which will open their house and welcome you as a family friend.
Those of you, who want to continue the visit to the wine cellar, will know more in detail the wine-making processes and the creation of blends.
During wine tasting you will also participate to our sensory evaluation game of the wine with perception and recognition of our wine aromas.
We hope that all this will motivate your curiosity and desire to deepen more and more the wonderful world of wine!
