Origin, Harvest & Sensory Profile
This is our oldest oil, with which my grandfather started his business more than 60 years ago. It is also the oil for which we are most known and recognized. Moraiolo, Frantoio and Melchiorri olives come from the rocky ground of Umbria along the foothills extending from Spoleto to Assisi. Intense, fruity and full-bodied, the oil features the fragrances and flavors of the enchanting land of Umbria.
