What to expect
Unwind and immerse yourself in the most authentic Tuscany with the Moricci Experience, a guided tour of the I Moricci Organic Farm, in the heart of Valdera, in Peccioli. An experience designed for those who want to discover a real place, where rural tradition, local history, and the choice of organic farming come together in a story made up of landscapes, scents, and flavors.
The route begins with the history of the farm and its grounds, from its ancient origins to 19th-century rural life, passing through the 1846 farmhouse, sharecropping, and events related to the aristocratic Rosselli del Turco and Rosselmini-Ricciardi families. Through anecdotes and stories, you will enter the soul of an estate that has been able to preserve the Tuscan agricultural memory and look to the future with a concrete ecological choice, undertaken since 1998.
The visit continues outdoors, among vineyards planted mainly with Sangiovese grapes and historic olive trees, where you will discover the value of manual harvesting, respect for the local ecosystem, and the meaning of organic production carried out with passion, not as a fad but as a matter of conviction. Walking through the hills of Valdera, you can breathe in the atmosphere of a genuine Tuscany, made up of work, care, and everyday beauty.
One of the central moments of the experience is the guided tasting of organic extra virgin olive oil, led by the owner, Maria Angela Macchia, a registered professional taster. You will learn to recognize the characteristics of a true quality EVO oil, its lively notes, and the direct link between the plant, the land, and the production method.
The tour continues with a guided tasting of the estate's wines, produced from the predominantly Sangiovese vineyard. You will discover labels with a strong and ironic character, such as the red "Falso modesto", the rosé "timo-rosa" and the Riserva "Modestia a parte", accompanied by a small selection of local food specialties from Valdera.
At the end of the experience, you will taste the estate's Ratafià, a typical liqueur made from wine, almonds and sour cherries. It all comes to life in the historic spaces of the estate or in the charming, finely restored 17th-century barn, for an experience that is much more than a food tasting: it is a journey through time, flavors, and the secrets of Tuscan agriculture.
