Fattoria Bini - Farm View

The Fattoria Bini is located nearby Empoli, in the Chianti area, between Florence and Pisa in the heart of Tuscany, a natural and historical environment. It has been passed from generation to generation, and today it is led by Elena and Francesca Bini Moriani, who continue, year after year, in their meticulous work of restoration and modernization. The historical site of the farm, today family residence, is the Villa Terraio, a five hundred years old villa, with a beautiful Italian style garden. The Villa, located in the Florentine hills, is surrounded by the vineyards and olive groves of the Fattoria Bini and accompanied by Borgo San Giusto, hospitality venue also ideal for meetings, shows, and private receptions. The Villa Terraio is surrounded by a beautiful forest, consisting mainly of tall oak trees, where you can often see rare birds of prey flying undisturbed.

In the mid-nineties, the Bini Family started a significant reforestation intervention. Since then, more than 15,000 trees (including walnuts, oaks, ash trees and cypresses) have been planted over 50 hectares, allowing the regeneration of the original rural environment. Today it is possible to see deer wandering in the woods. The origins and history of the Fattoria Bini are connected to the history of the Grand Dukedom of Tuscany. In the historical period from Pietro Leopoldo to Leopoldo II of Lorraine, 1765-1790, the Bini Family, originally from Livorno, began to focus on agriculture. Mariano, a wine merchant, moved to Empoli in 1789 to buy a small farm and adopt the latest cultivation techniques from Cosimo Ridolfi. The purchase of the Villa Terraio and surrounding farms date back to 1880. The Villa was the residence of the historic Florentine family De’Cerchi in the early sixteenth century.

Fattoria Bini - The Olive Orchards

Today, the olive orchards consist of 7,500 olive trees which extend over 25 hectares at an altitude between 100m and 200m above sea level. The olive varieties include some of the best known and more performing Tuscan cultivars: Frantoio, Moraiolo, Leccino, and Pendolino.

Only the Best Olives

At the Fattoria Bini all olives are picked by hand or with the help of hand-held olive shakers by groups of hard-working olive pickers. Entimio Distinto is crafted from only the best olives hand-picked early in the season. This unique olive oil is cold extracted within hours from harvest, in low-oxidation local mills to obtain a nutraceutical EVOO rich in antioxidants and health properties.

User questions & answers

Question:	When you ship via us post office there is no temp. control in mail trucks. your oil will climb to over 100 degrees.. will this effect papa vince oil
Answer:	I believe it would take a long duration of time exposed to high temperatures to really affect the olive oil.
Question:	De Cuantos polifenoles
Answer:	About 470 mg kg-1 at the time of bottling. Please keep in mind that this number will lower at variable rates for each bottle according to age, light and heat exposure.
Question:	is it cloudi
Answer:	Papa Vince extra Virgin Olive Oil is not filtered. It is decanted. After harvesting, we let the oil decant for about 2 months. Therefore, Papa Vince extra Virgin Olive Oil is neither transparent nor cloudy. Vitina
Question:	does it have olive smell
Answer:	Yes!! Olive are very green and peppery. You can compare the smell to fresh cut grass with hints of tomatoes and artichokes. Olives pick the aromas and flavors from the surrounding vegetation. Olives are peppery!! This is why Papa Vince has a mild peppery kick right in the back of your throat.

User questions & answers

Question:	Does this come in a plastic or glass container
Answer:	All Entimio olive oil is filtered with paper filters allowed under USDA organic certification. This "natural" filtration method is a relatively expensive process and has the purpose of reducing water content and solid residues to ensure shelf stability and maximum health benefits for consumers. I know that other sellers promote "unfiltered" olive oil as more natural and healthier. Unfortunately, that is not true, and all olive oil experts agree on this matter. Also, for maximum transparency and safety, we test all our Entimio olive oils after bottling. By doing so, we are sure that all values (polyphenols level, free acidity, absence of pesticides and resides, etc.) reported on our listings relate to the same product you will get at your home, after filtering and bottling. And if you still want to experience unfiltered olive oil, you should do so during harvest at the producer site or at least within three, max six, months from harvest. The higher water content and solid residues present in unfiltered olive oil contribute to significantly faster oxidation and reduction in the antioxidants content of any olive oil. I hope this helps you to make an informed choice. Regards, Daniel Santini - Founder of Entimio

User questions & answers

Question:	Is there a "peppery" taste to this evoo? i love that taste which i have found in some tuscan oils
Answer:	Yes, this Entimio Intenso EVOO has a nice peppery and slightly bitter note, balanced while pronounced, as to be expected in a robust EVOO and as typical of the "Correggiolo" olive variety cultivated in the Chianti Classico area. The peppery (aka pungent) and bitter notes are the natural expressions of polyphenols (natural antioxidants present in high-quality olive oils) and a distinctive sign of early harvest well-milled olive oils. Please see our pairing suggestions in the pictures and product details, but also experiment as taste is subject and there is no right or wrong answer. If you found this EVOO too robust, please consider one of the other Entimio EVOOs, which range from delicate to robust. We, of course, encourage you to try and use all our EVOOs and discover the diversity of authenticity! :) Regards, Daniel Santini - Founder of Entimio
Question:	Hi, i read that the fda label for health benefits could be put on olive oil with phenols of a certain level, which i think your oil has. why no label
Answer:	Hi, as far as I am aware, the FDA does NOT allow a health claim on the potential benefit from the consumption of olive oil with high phenolic content. The only "qualified health claim" allowed by the FDA on olive oil, which applies to all vegetable oils with more than 70% of oleic acid, is the following "Supportive but not conclusive scientific evidence suggests that daily consumption of about 1½ tablespoons (20 grams) of oils containing high levels of oleic acid, when replaced for fats and oils higher in saturated fat, may reduce the risk of coronary heart disease. To achieve this possible benefit, oleic acid-containing oils should not increase the total number of calories you eat in a day. One serving of [x] oil provides [x] grams of oleic acid (which is [x] grams of monounsaturated fatty acid)." All Entimio olive oil has > 70% of oleic acid. However, we believe the above language is so complicated, generic, and "weak", that it may confuse more than promote the use of olive oil. Indeed, few brands, if any, have written this FDA "qualified health claim" language on their packaging. A phenol-related claim is instead allowed by the European equivalent of the FDA, the EFSA, for oil with more than 200mg/kg of phenols, which is what you may have read about. As per the FDA health claim, also in Europe, it is very rare to see health claims on olive oil bottle/packaging, because the language is complicated and "weak." The "European" phenols-related claim reads something like "Polyphenols from olive have an antioxidant activity that may help maintain healthy LDL cholesterol level and lipid oxidation/antioxidants. This health benefit can be enjoyed following the consumption of 20 g of olive oil with a polyphenol content of 200 mg/kg / Min 2 mg per day of hydroxytyrosol". We make our best effort to produce and market delicious and authentic olive of the highest quality, which for us also means olive oil with oleic acid and phenolic content among the highest on the market. However, given we are neither doctors or food scientists, we prefer to leave to health practitioners and consumers to decide what is best for their health. I hope this addresses your question and shed some light on the topic also for other consumers. Thank you for your question. Regards, Daniel Santini - Founder of Entimio
Question:	Is this product organic
Answer:	Yes, it is. The latest 2018 Harvest Entimio Audace is now USDA Certified Organic. Enjoy it!
Question:	is this olive oil unfiltered? thanks
Answer:	All Entimio olive oil is filtered with paper filters allowed under USDA organic certification.

User questions & answers

Question:	What is the harvest year
Answer:	Don't know about the fridge, but I have kept mine in large glass jars for months on my counter. I drain off the brine and make up another solution using organic EVOO, hot, whole, small peppers (for a little kick), and the olives marinate, the longer the better. I'll give some away in small jars as hostess gifts, serve as hoerderves, snack on them, whatever. For me, the olives hold up well and stay firm. That large can filled up a gallon size Ball jar and a 1/2 gal one at the same time. It makes quite an impressive display while marinating. I've kept them out on the counter for about 3 1/2 months. Delicious! Have not just opened them and placed in the fridge.
Question:	Is it made with Italian olives or a combination of different olives
Answer:	Jo, it's 101 oz, 3 liters (not oz as in the description). The company should correct that because observant people like you may not buy when they see that.
Question:	How can I tell if it's authentic
Answer:	When you buy a tin of olive oil you need to make a hole with a nail at the other opposite end of the opening of the spigot. This helps the breathing of the can when pouring in to an olive oil canister. make sure to cover the nail hole with the same nail as to not permit any critters to fall in. Your problems will be solved.
Question:	This a good oil for pesto
Answer:	someone help - how do you remove the pour spout from the olive oil glass bottle?

User questions & answers

Question:	How can you verify its 100% virgin ? just being on lable and from iitaly is not a stamp of authenticity , as a former gov, inspector i need more
Answer:	You didn't say what you used to inspect to prove you are legit but I'm surprised as a "gov inspector" you don't know about CERMET certification. What is your question?
Question:	Would this be good to use in soaps and lotions
Answer:	You could use Extra Virgin in the production of soap and lotion; however, as I've read the cold press character of evoo will give soap a greenish color that some may find undesirable. Some suggest using plain olive oil of grade 40% less. But if a greenish hue isn't an issue with you, the grade of olive oil you choose is really immaterial. So, yes, you could use this.
Question:	Is IL Duomo pure olive oil still available

What is Extra Virgin?

'Extra' is the highest grade for olive oil. Virgin oil may be called 'extra' if it has less than 0.8% free oleic acid, and if it exhibits superior taste and aroma. Thus, the 'extra' in extra virgin olive oil means 'premium' or simply, 'the best.'

Why Olive Oil?

Extra virgin olive oils are not processed or refined. Extra virgin olive oil is essentially 'fresh squeezed' from the fruit of the olive tree, without alteration of the color, taste, and nutrients or vitamins. Because of the integrity of the product, and its antioxidant components, extra virgin olive oil will keep longer than all other vegetable oils.

Butter or Oil?

Colavita olive oils can be used in place of butter or margarine in many recipes, such as on vegetables, rice, potatoes, and–yes–even baking! To try olive oil in your recipe, try our olive oil recipe converter.

User questions & answers

Question:	Where is the item made
Answer:	I was skeptical of this as well (a popular sub sandwich chain does it) - but if you check the ingredients, they list the what and the where. Just olive oil ^_^ The “Mediterranean blend” is referring to the olive origins - Spain, Italy, and Greece. At this price, definitely worth a try!
Question:	Is this oil cold-pressed
Answer:	Yes, this Entimio Intenso EVOO has a nice peppery and slightly bitter note, balanced while pronounced, as to be expected in a robust EVOO and as typical of the "Correggiolo" olive variety cultivated in the Chianti Classico area. The peppery (aka pungent) and bitter notes are the natural expressions of polyphenols (natural antioxidants present in high-quality olive oils) and a distinctive sign of early harvest well-milled olive oils. Please see our pairing suggestions in the pictures and product details, but also experiment as taste is subject and there is no right or wrong answer. If you found this EVOO too robust, please consider one of the other Entimio EVOOs, which range from delicate to robust. We, of course, encourage you to try and use all our EVOOs and discover the diversity of authenticity! :) Regards, Daniel Santini - Founder of Entimio
Question:	What is the smoke point for this oil
Answer:	Hi, as far as I am aware, the FDA does NOT allow a health claim on the potential benefit from the consumption of olive oil with high phenolic content. The only "qualified health claim" allowed by the FDA on olive oil, which applies to all vegetable oils with more than 70% of oleic acid, is the following "Supportive but not conclusive scientific evidence suggests that daily consumption of about 1½ tablespoons (20 grams) of oils containing high levels of oleic acid, when replaced for fats and oils higher in saturated fat, may reduce the risk of coronary heart disease. To achieve this possible benefit, oleic acid-containing oils should not increase the total number of calories you eat in a day. One serving of [x] oil provides [x] grams of oleic acid (which is [x] grams of monounsaturated fatty acid)." All Entimio olive oil has > 70% of oleic acid. However, we believe the above language is so complicated, generic, and "weak", that it may confuse more than promote the use of olive oil. Indeed, few brands, if any, have written this FDA "qualified health claim" language on their packaging. A phenol-related claim is instead allowed by the European equivalent of the FDA, the EFSA, for oil with more than 200mg/kg of phenols, which is what you may have read about. As per the FDA health claim, also in Europe, it is very rare to see health claims on olive oil bottle/packaging, because the language is complicated and "weak." The "European" phenols-related claim reads something like "Polyphenols from olive have an antioxidant activity that may help maintain healthy LDL cholesterol level and lipid oxidation/antioxidants. This health benefit can be enjoyed following the consumption of 20 g of olive oil with a polyphenol content of 200 mg/kg / Min 2 mg per day of hydroxytyrosol". We make our best effort to produce and market delicious and authentic olive of the highest quality, which for us also means olive oil with oleic acid and phenolic content among the highest on the market. However, given we are neither doctors or food scientists, we prefer to leave to health practitioners and consumers to decide what is best for their health. I hope this addresses your question and shed some light on the topic also for other consumers. Thank you for your question. Regards, Daniel Santini - Founder of Entimio
Question:	What does DOP stand for on olive oil bottles
Answer:	Yes, it is. The latest 2018 Harvest Entimio Audace is now USDA Certified Organic. Enjoy it!
