Itinerary
Chianciano Terme
In Chianciano touring to taste the EVO Oil and learn about the "streap" technique!
The acronym EVO indicates Extra Virgin Olive Oil, the EVO oil is obtained from olives that have never touched the ground, have not undergone any processing and are worked exclusively with mechanical methods without chemicals at a controlled cold temperature.
The olives are pressed in the mill and that’s all for the extraction of the Extravirgin Olive Oil.
EVO Oil Tasting in a Real Oil Farm.

Free time for shopping and self-guided visit in the Medieval scented village!

It is a major producer of food and drink. Renowned for its pork, cheese, "pici" pasta, lentils, and honey, it is known world-wide for its wine. Connoisseurs consider its Vino Nobile, which should not be confused with varietal wine merely made from the Montepulciano grape, among Italy's best.
