The history of Chigi Saracini Farms has very ancient origins. Since the 12th century, many noble families have alternated the propriety of more than 900 hectares in Castelnuovo Berardenga. Count Guido Chigi Saracini was the last and only heir of the estate that included the “Farms.” Born in Siena in 1880, he was a figure of great prominence for many positions he held. In addition to his great love for his estate in Castelnuovo Berardenga, he was a great music lover, for this reason he founded the Accademia Chigiana Senese in 1932, still active in many projects.

FEATURES:
Olio del Conte is an extra virgin olive oil of great quality that has always been produced thanks to a tradition that is kept alive and vigorous by the olive trees that cover the farm’s hillsides. The color is deep green when young with a tendency to take on golden hues over time. The aroma is spicy and aromatic at pressing, becoming softer over time while maintaining a definite persistence.
