Our Organic Evo Oil
Extra virgin olive oil has been a fundamental ingredient in the Mediterranean diet since the origins of agriculture. The Organic EVOO from Tenuta della Sgrilla is produced with the goal of enhancing the healthiest and highest-quality components of extra virgin olive oil, obtaining an oil made from hand-selected olives, organoleptically impeccable.
Primarily composed of monounsaturated fatty acids, EVOO also contains polyphenols, beta-carotene, and vitamins E, D, and K, which have antioxidant properties and a protective effect on our body’s cells. It is precisely the high concentration of these elements that ensures a healthy, genuine extra virgin olive oil of significant importance to our health.
The health of our land is also a primary focus of Tenuta della Sgrillas organic farming approach, adhering to an ethical and eco-sustainable system. We do not use synthetic chemicals and strictly avoid insecticides, fungicides, pesticides, herbicides, and harmful fertilizers.

The Estate
Tenuta della Sgrilla is located in the southern part of the Maremma Toscana, on the hills near Capalbio. This medieval village, suspended between the sea and sky, overlooks the rolling hills below. A splendid land, both wild and gentle, rich in unexpected contrasts and characterized by diverse environments that harmoniously follow one another, creating an extraordinary emotional connection for visitors.
A place that, once visited, is impossible not to return to. This ancient stretch of land is authentic and unspoiled, forming a perfect and rare microcosm where it’s distinctive elements coexist and blend, painting the landscape with color: the crystal-clear blue sea, the green of the olive trees and vineyards spreading over the soft hills, and the deep, intense hues of Mount Amiata. From the Tyrrhenian Sea’s rugged coastline, golden sandy beaches, and hidden coves, a southern wind blows inland, carrying scents of myrtle, broom, and pines. As it moves further inland, the Mediterranean scrub gives way to dense forests of holm oaks and cork oaks, and the rolling hills become blanketed with vineyards and olive groves. Intense aromas and vibrant colors create a magical and poetic landscape, inspiring peace, where everything is gentle, and time seems to stand still, respecting nature’s rhythm. A place with magnetic energy. Here lies Tenuta della Sgrilla.
