Olive cultivation, like viticulture, is a tradition our family has passed down through generations. Our land is home to centuries-old olive trees, as well as some millennial specimens, witnesses to a deeply rooted agricultural history.
Harvesting is carried out strictly by hand, respecting natural rhythms and preserving the integrity of the fruit.
Cold extraction, performed within a few hours of harvest, preserves the organoleptic properties, structure, and natural polyphenol content, resulting in a balanced extra virgin olive oil.
Produced in limited quantities, Itrio is the result of a careful selection of the finest olives and expresses the identity and characteristics of each vintage.
