Description
Oil mill
On a hill between Montefiascone and Lake Bolsena in the heart of Latium (Tuscia Viterbese) is a farm of 300 hectares.
The company has been handed down from generation to generation along with family ownership. Respect for nature is the basic goal.
For this reason, the company has decided to cultivate and produce according to the specifications of organic agriculture. High quality cereals are grown, such as Senatore Cappelli durum wheat and spelt.
Furthermore extra virgin olive oil DOP Tuscia is gained from the olive grove (an area of 40 hectares) with its centuries-old trees.
Tasting extra virgin olive oil
During this learning experience you will visit the olive groves, the private oil mill and the laboratory. You can see how extra virgin olive oil, flavoured oils, olive paste and jams are made and bottled from own fruit trees.

This experience wants to show you the work behind this important product: oil, staple food of the Mediterranean diet.
