San Michele olive oil
From the land to the table
Every year, we hand-pick the olives from the trees in our garden. The cold pressing happens within hours to preserve the aromas, polyphenols, and freshness. The result? A genuine oil with a balanced, fruity taste, perfect for enhancing the flavors of Mediterranean cuisine.
The scent of wind, sun, and silence: our oil tells the beauty of Garda.
A journey through the production of our oil
Our extra virgin olive oil comes from a meticulous process that values every step, from olive picking to the final extraction, ensuring a top-quality product.
Hand picking
The olives are harvested by hand at the optimal time to preserve the fruit and ensure the quality of the oil.
Leaf removal and washing
After harvesting, the olives are cleaned of leaves and carefully washed to remove dust and soil residues.
Crushing and malaxing
The crushed olives turn into a homogeneous paste, which is then mixed to promote the aggregation of oil.
Cold pressing
Using mechanical methods, the oil is separated from water and pomace, preserving its taste and nutritional properties.
