Extra Virgin Olive Oil Experience
Overview
Enjoy the extraordinary experience of our extra virgin olive oil tasting; we go along with you in a sensory journey to discover the "liquid gold"

After a brief introduction on this pillar of Italian gastronomy’s history and cultural legacy, we walk our guests through our production philosophy centred on the use of a low-impact oxidative system that respects the cultivar’s integrity and traceability.
