In the hills on the southern side of the estate, Banfi cultivates 45 hectares of olive groves that, for the 50%, are made up of rows of vines, according to Tuscan tradition. Apart from a small nucleus of historical plants, recently 'restored' thanks to the intervention of 'artisans' in the work of sluping, disinfecting and consolidating the old wood, the rest of the olive grove is made up of more rcenti plants managed in 'vase' style. Thus, Banfi Olive Oil and Poggio alle Mura Olive Oil were born: two delicious nectars, fruit of this extraordinary land.
