While other parts of Tuscany have developed
industries that have done much the economy but little for the landscape,
the area of the "Crete Senesi" and the neighboring Val
d'Orcia have largely remained true to their early agricultural vocation.
Today this means local products of outstanding quality, made with traditional
methods and skills that are handed down from father to son.
The best-known of these are doubtless Montalcino's distinguished
Brunello red wine and the Vino Nobile of Montepulciano,
both of which accompany to perfection dishes based on the game that is
so abundandt in the area: pheasant, quail, hare, wild boar... not to mention
the trouffles and wild mushrooms.
Likewise, the Pecorino cheeses made with ewe's milk from the Pienza
pastures are now in demand among gourmets at home and abroad.
More recently, discerning palates have come to take a particular interest
in the exceptionally fine olive oil pressed from olives grown on the hillsides
between Lucignano, Montisi, Trequanda and Castelmuzio,
where the quality of the soil, the dry air and light breeze ensure that
no chemical treatments are required to obtain an optimal crop of fruit.
The "Azienda Lucignanello Bandini" is rightly proud of
the award-winning cold-pressed extra virgin olive oil obtained from olives
grown on the family property at Lucignano d'Asso.
Frantoio or Correggiolo, Leccino, Moraiolo
and Pendolino are the olives produced by the olive-grove of Lucignano
dAsso. Our extra virgin olive oil come from those qualities of olives.
During all working stages we wanted to respect the tradition to safeguard
each natural qualities of the product.
