Looking to gain a deeper connection to Tuscany? La Chiusa Tuscany, a 4-star boutique hotel, and its on-site cooking school Cook in Tuscany teamed up to provide a true Agriturismo experience with an exclusive experience for the fall 2026 olive oil harvest.
This experience includes a stay at La Chiusa Tuscany, in the heart of Montefollonico. The property has a stunning olive grove with 1,000 olive trees, some more than 300 years old, and an olive mill dating from 1353.
Mornings start in the olive groves, collecting olives by hand as generations have done for years. Next, visit the on-site olive mill to learn the art of making extra virgin olive oil and participate in the transformation process of making oil. Guests will then have the chance to bottle and label the olive oil they created and be able to take home a number of small bottles.
The big celebration begins when the group gathers around the table for a hands-on cooking experience where they’ll learn how to make freshly pressed olive oil drizzled over traditional Tuscan dishes paired with local wines, storytelling and dancing under the Tuscan sky.
Olive Oil Harvest is available for stays Nov. 1–4 or Nov. 5–8 and includes all meals, accommodations, harvest activities, local transportation with group tours, olive oil to take home and much more.

Aug 11, 2026Get an Insider’s Look at Napa Valley’s Busiest Season
If you haven’t been to wine country during harvest season, have you really been to wine country? Vineyards buzz with workers plucking sun-ripened clusters while the winery hums with sorting tables and presses gently extracting precious juice and tannins. In the cellar, the air is perfumed with an intoxicating cuvée of baking bread and grapes as vats alive with bubbling juice are tended to by the winemaker’s watchful eyes. For wine lovers, the experience is nothing short of magical. It also offers a newfound appreciation to the hard work behind every bottle in a way that simply bellying up to a tasting bar never could. Napa Valley has perfected the art of the harvest celebration with festivals, dinners, tastings, hands-on experiences and, of course, the opportunity to literally feel grapes between your toes.
