Wine Description | This mill sits on the border of Tuscany and Umbria. It is one of the tiniest mills in Italy and produces some of the most celebrated oil in the region. They have the D.O.P. which is guaranteed by the European Union as being produced in a area that produces olive oil with less than 1% acidity. Very little of the olive oil from this mill is sold outside of Italy and it is very rare to find it. It is mostly sold within Italy as Italians require very high levels of olive oil. |
