We had the pleasure to meet Bianca on an Olive Tasting visit to her farm where she explained about the process of growing and pressing oil. We were then treated to a wonderful oil tasting session and a delicious lunch made using her incredible oil and wine made from her own vineyard. This was an amazing experience which we enjoyed immensely, so much so we ordered shipments of oil and wine which arrived promptly in the uk. We have never tasted oil like this and would thoroughly recommend visiting.
This visit was a true Tuscan gem — an authentic and heartfelt experience hosted by Bianca Mascagni. The tour began with a walk through the family’s olive groves, where we learned about organic cultivation, harvesting, and the production process. The scenery around Pienza and the Val d’Orcia hills was stunning — peaceful, rustic, and quintessentially Tuscan. The experience was capped off with a wonderful homemade lunch prepared on the farm, showcasing local seasonal ingredients and, of course, their exceptional organic olive oil. Every dish — from the bruschetta and vegetables to the pasta — highlighted the flavor and quality of the oil. It felt like a meal shared with friends rather than a commercial tasting.
This is a must do if you’re in the area. Bianca is a great host. She is passionate and very knowledgeable about olive oil. We loved learning about the olive oil production and market. After the tour, Bianca served a lunch cooked by her parents that was one of the best meals we had in Italy. We’re still talking about it. It was truly a great experience!
We visited Bianca's olive farm on the recommendation of our accommodation and will be telling our family and friends all about it! This really was a special experience on our trip to Tuscany. The farm itself is located in the middle of the Tuscan hills with a wonderful view of the countryside. Bianca greeted us warmly and the impression was immediately very familiar. We first went on a short tour of the olive plantations and learnt a lot about how she started the olive business, which she founded about 10 years ago. The story was really exciting. The tasting itself was very warm and lovingly organised and Bianca's mother cooked a fantastic meal for us to sample the olive oil with various dishes. It's really great what Bianca has set up and lives every day! Finally, we bought some oil for ourselves and our family and will now always look at olive oil with a different eye (and taste) :-) All in all, an absolute recommendation when travelling to Tuscany
Bianca’s expert guidance on Tuscan extra virgin olive oil was truly inspiring. Her passion, warmth, and deep knowledge made the experience both educational and memorable. Thank you for sharing your love for olive oil with us
