Poggio al Vento, a historic house of 1600, has always been the home of sharecropping farmers.
In 1961 it was purchased by the Mascelloni family and transformed into an independent family-run farm.
In the early seventies the production of grains and wine began with the selling of wine in 54 liters bottles.
In 1985 there was an abnormal frost, the cold temperatures reached minus twenty degrees below zero celsius. This event was disastrous and irreparably ruined all of the olive trees, which were cut down to the stump and then regrown and began to reproduce olives after 4 years. New prized varieties were also planted. After a patient wait of 8 years, the production and marketing of the current oil began.
