“From the Heart of Tuscany to Your Table”

From the Grove

Buon Anno from the hills of Tuscany. January settles quietly over Casale 3 Danesi, wrapping the olive groves and the farmhouse in a soft winter stillness. The trees rest after the harvest, and the estate breathes — a time for reflection, for planning, and for gratitude.

The mill still carries the faint perfume of freshly pressed olives, and the new oil rests in stainless-steel tanks, waiting to be bottled with care.

Estate & Production Updates

The 2025 harvest was generous, producing an oil with a beautifully balanced profile — bright green fruitiness, a peppery finish, and the unmistakable character of our Tuscan soil.

  • Monitoring the new oil as it settles
  • Preparing the groves for spring pruning
  • Planning sustainability improvements for the year

Early tasters have praised this season’s EVOO, and we look forward to sharing more as awards season approaches.

Recipe of the Month: Ribollita Toscana

A winter classic — humble, hearty, and perfect for showcasing the depth of Casale 3 Danesi EVOO.

Ingredients:
  • Stale Tuscan bread
  • Cannellini beans
  • Cavolo nero (Tuscan black kale)
  • Carrots, celery, onion
  • Tomato paste
  • Salt & pepper
  • A generous drizzle of Casale 3 Danesi EVOO

How to enjoy it: Serve piping hot, then finish with a slow, abundant pour of our extra virgin olive oil. The warmth of the soup releases the oil’s aromas, creating a comforting bowl that tastes like a Tuscan farmhouse in winter.

Taste of Tuscany: The Quiet Beauty of January

January in Tuscany is a month of reflection. The countryside is peaceful, the villages unhurried. Locals gather around fireplaces, sharing stories, chestnuts, and simple meals enriched with new-season olive oil.

It’s a time when tradition feels especially alive — from the Epiphany celebrations to the small-town markets offering cavolo nero, fennel, and citrus. This is the Tuscany that inspires Casale 3 Danesi: authentic, grounded, and deeply connected to the rhythm of the land.
