Vacations in Chianti Agritourism Fattoria La Loggia, relaxation and hospitality
THE SPIRIT OF THE TUSCAN RENAISSANCE
Completely immersed in a natural environment
and surrounded by olive trees and by its own
vineyards, the Fattoria la Loggia is in the heart of
the Chianti Classico, 15 km to the south of
Florence, and is placed on top of a hill from which
you can enjoy a panoramic view of great beauty
and fascination.
The Fattoria is made up of a village of ancient
farmhouses and dates back to 1427. In the
Renaissance the Fattoria la Loggia belonged
formerly to the Buondelmonti and then to the
Medici family, lords of Florence.
Various works and sculptures of major
contemporary Italian and foreign artists are
installed in some of the most attractive parts of
the village and in the gardens of the master’s
villa.The village of the Fattoria La Loggia, arrived
to us with all the taste of the centuries, is able to
offer its guests a stay made of accurate services
and of elegant and informal cordiality, where the
magic atmosphere from the past fuses with the
warmth of the Tuscan rural tradition.
The works are part of the permanent collection
created by the La Loggia Art Center.

THE VIEWS
Here are the woods and the views that our guests will be able to admire from the Fattoria La Loggia.
Magic visions that show themselves from any angle and from the windows of our ancient village and that

castles, abbeys, churches, ancient convents and charming ancient villages: a really unforgettable find for

mountain bikes, marvellous woods, the areas for the barbecue, the well kept meadows from which you
dominate the valley, a panorama in the round, then all around teems with ancient villages, castles, villas,
churches, monasteries, vineyards, olive trees, farms, cellars, cypresses, Etruscan tombs, restaurants,
trattorias, kilns producing cotto, pitchers and vases etc. Instead if you go south you reach Montalcino
where to visit the cellars and to taste the Brunello wine and then and then... a holiday is not sufficient for
sure.

Nothing like wine manages to be both symbol and
expression of a land and of its generosity and vigor.
Nothing like wine manages to be both symbol and
expression of a people and of its values and its labors.
Nothing like wine manages to be both symbol and
expression of a prize, Hard earned, long awaited and
generous.
In no other part of the world are land, wine and people so
fused in an ancient and unique nexus as in Tuscany and
as in Chianti Classico.
For us at the Fattoria La Loggia, wine is the symbol of
hard, meticulous work and of knowledge handed down
from the distant past, from the times of the Medicis, the
first owners of the estate.
It is the symbol of a daily commitment imposed on us by
our tradition, the same that has made the Black Rooster
the distinctive sign of one of the world's greatest and
most loved wines.

Extra Virgin Olive Oil Fattoria La Loggia
COME GLI ETRUSCHI ...
Vero elisir di lunga vita, l'olio extravergine di oliva è
da sempre il principe della alimentazione
mediterranea.
Gli etruschi, fondatori della più antica civiltà sorta in
italia, consideravano addirittura sacro l'ulivo.
Ricavavano l'olio spremendo semplicemente le olive
con grandi macine in pietra di granito.
Tremila anni dopo, alla Fattoria La Loggia nulla è
cambiato: il nostro olio extravergine è ottenuto
pressando a freddo le olive. Come facevano gli
Etruschi.

OLIO EXTRAVERGINE DI OLIVA
Denomination:
Zona del Chianti Classico ad una altitudine di 350
mt. sul livello del mare in zona particolarmente
vocata per l'olivicoltura grazie alla natura del
terreno e alle notevoli differenze di temperatura
tra l'estate e l'inverno.
Variety:
The olives are typical varieties of the Tuscan
tradition in the following percentages: 70%
Frantoio, 20% Moraiolo and 10% Leccino.
Sensory Characteristics:
Intense green color
ODOR: Extremely intense and persistent, fruity,
with scents of freshly pressed olives.
FLAVOR: Incisive and fruity with a touch of
piquancy that tends to diminish as the months
pass.
Cycle of Harvesting and Extraction:
The olives come solely from estate-owned
orchards and they are picked exclusively by hand
when they have not yet reached full ripeness or,
in any case, not beyond the end of November.
The olives are sent to the press within 24 hours
of the harvest. In the processing cycle, the
leaves are eliminated and the olives are washed
and, in keeping with the centuries-old tradition,
ground in stone mills. The paste obtained by the
process is pressed at a low temperature-between
20 and 23° C. (68-73° F.)-to bring out the
aromatic and sensory characteristics typical of
true extra virgin olive oil. The oil is preserved in
typical Tuscan orci (large earthenware jars) or
small stainless steel tanks.
Acidity: less than 0,5%
