The territory
The Trasimeno hills
A gentle land of hills, lake and ancient olive trees. The microclimates of the Umbrian side of Trasimeno give our oils unique aromas and rare persistence.
Care in selection
Olives separated by origin
Each grove is harvested and processed separately. Olives are divided by origin, variety and quality: this is how our “cru” are born.
A tradition that continues
Since 1890, today
The historic mill continues its work, preserving gestures and knowledge that span the decades. Today our oils reach all over the world.
