Olive farm

While the Fattoria Ramerio is a relatively young enterprise, the outstanding quality of its olive oils has already earned it a place among the best olive farms in Italy. In addition to receiving 99 points from Flos Olei, they were also awarded the "Best in Class Award" in New York and the "Marco Mugelli Award" in Los Angeles in 2020. Standing on ancient terrain, which is home to some centuries-old olive trees, the organic cultivation methods contribute to the outstanding quality and the incomparable flavour of the Fattoria Ramerino olive oils.

Region and Processing

Fattoria Ramerino is located in the mountains south of Florence in the heart of Tuscany. The area between Chianti and Valdorno is famous for its wines and olives, and has been a centre of agriculture since Roman times. Today the main natural products of the region are wine and olive oil. The farm is located in a valley basin 250m below sea level with optimal sun and ideal growing conditions.

The 50 hectares of land are home to roughly 5,500 olive trees of which some are several centuries old. Traditionally cultivated varieties include the Tuscan Moraiolo, Frantoio, Leccino, and Americano.

The olive grove is organically maintained. All fertilisers are completely natural, the grass is only occasionally mowed during dry periods, and the trees are kept healthy only via trimming and other natural methods. The farm has been certified organic since 2004.
