Moraiolo e Correggiolo monocultivar oil 2023

Evo oil will be scarce this year too. By now we have become accustomed to harvesting few olives but we continue to love the trees that characterize our landscape. Trequanda, where the Fattoria del Colle is located, has been included in the register of “Rural landscapes of historical interest” thanks to the olive groves that cover its hills and which, since the Renaissance, have given rise to the production of terracotta jars in the hamlet of Petroio

To stay at Fattoria del Colle amidst the vineyards, to dine with local traditional dishes, to hunt for truffles with truffle hunters and their dogs and then learn how to prepare them.

THE BEAUTY OF AUTUMN IN THE TUSCAN COUNTRYSIDE

Autumn is the foliage moment, when the vineyards and the woods change colour transforming the Valdorcia and the Crete Senesi into a fairytale scenario: This is maybe the moment that the countryside is at its best. Ideal for hiking and for photography safaris, regenerating the body and mind.

The pleasures of the table are also of high level in autumn, because long evenings allow us to slowly enjoy the most gluttonous pleasures .Fattoria del Colle is in fact in the area of the Crete Senesi where the white truffle comes from as well as where one of the best Tuscan extra virgin olive oils is made. Last but not least: fine red wines: Brunello coming from the Casato Prime Donne winery in Montalcino that belongs to the same owner, Chianti Superiore and the Doc Orcia produced from the vineyards around the estate.
