The oil PDO Chianti Classico is an extra virgin obtained in full compliance with the rules set out in the production specification. Among the requisites is to be obtained only from olives grown in the Chianti Classico area, or in an area between provinces of Florence and Siena fully corresponding to that defined for the “Chianti Classico” wine area, already described in the interministerial decree of 31/07/1932. In any case, the olive cultivation, processing and bottling activities must necessarily be carried out within the Chianti Classico area. Whenever you want to bottle Chianti Classico DOP oil, the producer is obliged to have chemical and organoleptic checks carried out which establish if yes reach those characteristics indicated in the specification. For example, from a chemical point of view, the PDO must have some parameters included within precise limits that are better than those foreseen for a non-PDO extra virgin olive oil.
