Our olives grow at an altitude of 500 MASL. The altitude protects them from parasites attacks, allowing us to obtain a traditionally and completely hand-processed, natural and high quality oil, starting from the manual field harvesting of olives, which are carefully selected and cold-pressed within a few hours from the harvest, in order to keep all the organoleptic properties of the fruits.
Winemaking requires a lot of sacrifice and patience, along with a great technical preparation, and can be produced only if driven by strong passion, authentic interest in nature and love for the land. Alessandro, our oenologist, grew up with these ideals, which represent his life and family company philosophy. That’s why the wines he produces and selects are genuine, sincere and round, just like his personality.
Our woods, typical of the Mediterranean scrub, are composed by broad-leaved trees such as oaks and holly oaks; we get our firewood from there, respecting the forest and the environment. This strong wood burns more slowly, with lower flames, and it’s highly recommended for domestic heating, as it guarantees a longer burning life. The strawberry tree provides instead an excellent charcoal and a strongly aromatic firewood, much appreciated for preparing roasts or pizzas in a wood oven.
