Olio del Capùnto
Frutto e orgoglio delle nostre terre
We want to be able to say "I made it!" with all the pride and commitment to offer an exceptional olive oil. That's why we decided to manage the whole process of the olive oil making and delivery. Our companies grow the olive trees, mill their fruits and pack the oil, right to the moment when it is delivered to your doorstep.
"Olive oil is one of the four most essential things for man's life"
Statute of Siena – 1428
La Toscana è forse la più grande terra da olio italiana. È nella campagna di Siena che si producono oli tra i migliori della Toscana.
We're not the only ones to declare it: our product undergoes several controls to be compliant with the procedural guideline of the Consortium for the protection of Tuscan Extra Virgin Olive Oil IGP.That means that we have to guarantee that our olive oil is entirely made in Tuscany. You can check it yourself!
Each bottle of PGI Toscano Olio del Capùnto bears a mark with a unique code, which encloses everything you need to know about that very olive oil you're holding. You just need to type in the code on the traceability page on the Consortium's website.
It's our olive oil: Made in Italy, from plantation to harvest
La raccolta nei nostri oliveti inizia di solito a metà ottobre. Occorre operare celermente per sfruttare questo periodo, quando il frutto non è troppo maturo e da il meglio di sé. Per questo utilizziamo sistemi di raccolta innovativi che garantiscono rapidità di esecuzione e integrità delle olive. I frutti sono trasportati al nostro frantoio e lavorati entro 12 ore dalla raccolta.
When the olives get to the mill they are worked in a controlled atmosphere and only by mechanical means. Melting our 40-year-long experience and the latest technologies, we are able to create an exceptional olive oil, both for its nutritional and taste properties.

I nostri oli
Olio del Capùnto IGP Toscano
Olio del Capùnto IGP Toscano biologico
Olio del Capùnto IGP Toscano Ecco!
I nostri oliveti sono tutti ubicati nella provincia di Siena, a un’altitudine tra i 200 e i 400 metri sul livello del mare.
The cultivars farmed are all included in the procedural guideline of the Consortium for the Protection of Tuscan Olive Oil. The fruits must be harvested at the minimum of their ripeness, that's why we start on mid-October.
Olives are harvested mechanically with an electric shaker and by shaking the trunk in the specialized olive plantation, while in the intensive plantations we do over-the-row harvesting. Extraction is performed in a low-temperature ambiance and in a very short time after harvesting. The olive oil is stored in stainless steel, vacuum-sealed tins and, finally, packed in opaque, noble gas-filled tins, so as to avoid contact with oxygen and preserve its quality in time.
