Extra virgin Chianti Classico olive oil (D.O.P)
Produced from a blend of Frantoio (60%) and Moraiolo (40%) olives from the calcium-rich soils of the high hills of Chianti where the olive trees throw a very small crop of fleshy, low-acid, characterful olives. In terms of its balance of flavour and finesse this is the finest of all the Giachi live oils. Chianti Classico now has its own olive oil appellation, a D.O.P (Protected Denomination of Origin) for this type of oil, and the family has joined the producers' consortium, accepting all of its regulations and the additional costs which they imply.
