Conte Guicciardini di Ferdinando Guicciardini has received a Gold Award at the NYIOOC World Olive Oil Competition. The award was given for their Laudemio Castello di Poppiano, which is pro­duced from the olive groves of Castello di Poppiano.

The Guicciardini fam­ily, one of the old­est Florentine fam­i­lies, has been influ­en­tial in Florence’s social, polit­i­cal, and com­mer­cial spheres since 1200. Their his­tory is closely linked to the Castello di Poppiano, a medieval struc­ture dat­ing back to the first mil­len­nium.

Laudemio Castello di Poppiano is made from the Frantoio cul­ti­var, with olives har­vested in November and December. The pro­duc­tion process is guided by a focus on qual­ity, from the tree to the mill to the bot­tle.

The win­ning brands are pre­sented in the Official Guide and the Olive Oil Times World Ranking.
