The History of Fattoria La Maliosa: A Journey of Sustainability and Quality
The history of Fattoria La Maliosa began in 2010 thanks to the vision of Antonella Manuli, who wanted to create a farm capable of enhancing the Tuscan Maremma through natural and sustainable agriculture. Her mission has always been to preserve the land and rediscover ancient farming methods, avoiding the use of synthetic chemicals and promoting biodiversity. This journey led Fattoria La Maliosa to join the prestigious The Old Vine Conference, an international community that brings together those who value and preserve the culture and history of vineyards, with its Vigna Madre.
One of the key elements of the project was the decision to restore historic vineyards, adopting an approach that combined traditional techniques with modern regenerative farming practices. This led to the creation of a healthy and productive ecosystem, capable of sustaining itself over time, ensuring high-quality wines and extra virgin olive oils.
The company has invested in staff training, collaborating with experts in natural viticulture and organic olive growing to continuously improve the quality of production. Thanks to this commitment, Fattoria La Maliosa has become a benchmark in the world of natural wines and organic extra virgin olive oil, earning numerous national and international awards.
