Seggiano is a little medieval hilltown on the slopes of Monte Amiata, in the province of Grosseto. Visitors will walk among gems of art and architecture, and among the green and silver of the olive trees that have historically set down roots here, yielding an olive oil whose fame stretches far beyond the borders of Tuscany.
Seggiano marks the threshold between the gentle undulations of the Val d'Orcia and the more mountainous landscape of the Amiata area; but its fame rests with the native olive cultivar to which it has given its name, the Olivastra seggianese. These cultivar is highly prized, widely known, and produces the extra-virgin olive oil Seggiano DOP
