PODERI BORSELLI
THE PODERI BORSELLI ORGANIC COMPANY
BORN FROM A LONG FAMILY TRADITION OF FARMERS
With the planting of olive trees and vines, the guaranteed organic production of Tuscan IGP extra virgin olive oil and Montecucco Rosso Doc wine begins.
In addition to recovering abandoned plants around the family farm, Fausto decides to invest in the search for native clones of both ancient vines and centuries-old olive trees.
Since 2005 Davide has joined Poderi Borselli after a series of studies in olive and vine cultivation techniques at the faculty of Agriculture at the University of Pisa and Marketing at the University of Parma. Respect for nature and the environment was implemented immediately, the most restrictive organic certifications and biodynamic courses at Apab Florence and above all on a technical level, with the purchase of the boiler powered by olive pits (residue from the oil mill) and olive tree (pruning residue) and since 2009 by a 20 kW photovoltaic system, the first in the municipality of Castel del Piano.
Subsequently, updates are made to the oil extraction system, using latest generation machinery with high water savings and total absence of oxygen, in collaboration with technicians from the University of Florence and the Agrivision company.
The same happens for wine, very delicate presses are introduced for the extraction of the must, dry ice for fermentations and oak tonneaus for vinifying and aging the wines. Everything must be as natural as possible, very few additions of SO2, even in particularly difficult years, natural sedimentation, and spontaneous fermentation.
The steps are taken little by little, but of strong change.
Since 2011 we have been the first producers of DOP Seggiano oil both on our own behalf and on behalf of third parties.
