Olio

Extra Vergine

D'Oliva

The oil our family has made for years finally has a name:

La Lupa

Pressed every October, from Tuscany to your table.

  • Aerial view of the grove on a hillside with a farmhouse on the ridge.
    01 / 06

    The hillside

    The grove sits on a hillside near Pisa. Olives have grown here for centuries.

  • A single old olive tree standing on the hillside in autumn light.
    02 / 06

    The trees

    Some are over a hundred years old. They've outlived the people who planted them.

  • Two people pruning olive trees with hand tools among the grove.
    03 / 06

    The pruning

    Every winter, they're pruned by hand. It's slow work, and most of it is done by family.

  • Two pigs foraging beneath the olive trees.
    04 / 06

    The pigs

    Nothing sprayed, nothing irrigated. Pigs roam between the trees, and what they leave behind feeds the ground.

  • Olives flowing along the sorting line at the mill.
    05 / 06

    The harvest

    The olives are picked by hand in October, and cold-pressed within hours at a mill nearby.

  • Olive oil pouring from the mill into a green tin.

    Unfiltered

    We don't filter our oil. What's pressed is what's bottled.

Why La Lupa

Lupa means wolf in Italian. The grove has always had wolves, we just didn't know until a camera trap caught them one afternoon, moving through the trees. The name came after.

The family, the grove

Lorenzana

The land has been in our family for generations. My aunt Chiara has managed the grove for over thirty years, working with the rhythm of the trees, the seasons, and the animals that live alongside them. Nothing is rushed and nothing is sprayed.

I'm her nephew. I live in London. Every year we bring some of the oil over so that people here can taste what we've been eating for as long as I can remember.

This isn't a big operation. We make a small amount, and when it's gone, it's gone until October.
