Frantoio Franci Villa Magra Grand Cru
The flagship of one of Tuscany’s most decorated mills. Frantoio from the Villa Magra grove, made in a run of about 10,000 bottles: the producer describes it as broad, sweet on opening, with a pleasant bitter charge and a spiced, peppery pungency. Flos Olei scored it 100/100 in its 2026 guide; Bibenda named it the best extra virgin in Italy in 2022.
