The Agriturismo is part of the La Ranocchiaia farm, which combines tradition and modernity, with 160Ha of cultivated fields of their own and other rented land, where they produce durum wheat for seed, tomatoes for processing, sunflower seed and spinach in winter.
Within the farm there is a small olive grove and about 2 hectares of vineyard: both are highly specialised plants for the production of quality oil and wine, in accordance with Tuscan tradition.
The company has a large fleet of machines, some of which are of high and very modern technology, while most activities are still carried out as in the past, respecting nature and its products.
For the cultivation of the fields, the farm has water from artesian wells. Great attention is paid to the ecological sustainability of our crops: to reduce waste and respect the environment, the large cultivated areas are irrigated with drip systems.

The wine: Tuscan Red IGT
The two 15-year-old vines at Ranocchiaia are cultivated using traditional methods and trained using the spurred cordon system.
There are typical vines of this area, such as the large-grained San Giovese (50%), the Merlot (15%) and the Cabernet Souvignon (35%), skilfully planted in the vineyards combined to form a very harmonious and appropriately tannic blend.
The harvested grapes are processed at a local Cooperative Winery, where they are treated with traditional technology for the preservation of aromas and organoleptic qualities and with modern technology for food safety.
The wine obtained is a typical Tuscan red, Indicazione Geografica Tipica (IGT) with a ruby red colour tending towards garnet with a soft, intense and herbaceous bouquet.
Tuscan Extra Virgin Olive Oil
La Ranocchiaia produces extra virgin olive oil limited to the needs of the owners and guests of the Agriturismo.
The Leccino, Pendolino and Moraiolo varieties of olive trees, typical of Tuscan oil, are grown on two plots: one with trees over 20 years old and a young one with trees 3 years old.
The olives are harvested by hand and taken to a local oil mill, where they are cold pressed under the supervision of the owners to guarantee the authenticity of the oil.
Ranocchiaia extra virgin olive oil is a true concentrate of nature with all its excellent characteristics for the health of children and adults.
