OUR HISTORY

The Oil Mill is the first real responsibility that our father has given us. When I was in my last year of high school I was already interested in understanding how Extra Virgin Olive Oil was produced, therefore, during the pressing period, I spent hours in the oil mill. But as you can imagine at that age it was just a beautiful hobby. When growing up I understood the importance of doing a job capable of binding you so intimately to the earth and the rhythms of nature, making oil has become a true profession and an authentic passion. My name is Fanny Nigi and together with my brother Giovanni Nigi, I manage the Oil Mill Fattoria del Biancheto, nestled in the woods of Cetona (in the province of Siena) a few steps from the Val d’Orcia territory.
