Montechiaro Estate is home to 2,000 olive trees, carefully managed through organic farming practices. With love and passion, we work on each tree to extract the best organic extra-virgin olive oil, the base for many regional dishes.
We have preserved the most typical olive varieties and blended them to create a unique and complex flavor profile. These olives are harvested by hand between November and December, when they are slightly under-ripe. To preserve the oil's flavor and nutritional value, we use a continuous cold cycle to press the olives.
Our historic olive mill museum showcases a longstanding tradition of producing this green jewel.

THE OLIVE OIL 2024
The "olio nuovo" is sweet, soft and spicy. Italian love to spread it on a piece of bread and call it "bruschetta". It is very enjoyable fresh on a salad and not cooked.
