Extra virgin olive oil “Millenarium” from century-old olive trees 500ml

Our Millenarium extra virgin olive oil is precious in its uniqueness because it is produced from the millenary olive trees that have majestically stood for centuries in our estate “Cannavà.”

Producing this millenary oil means for us saving and preserving more than a hundred centuries-old and millenary olive trees, difficult to care for, difficult to protect.

Each bottle is unique with its own individual number, an expression of sensory research, being produced exclusively from Ottobratica olives, a native variety.

They belong to that place and from that place they have absorbed the deep essence of a story narrated by the wind that has crossed their silvery leaves since the 8th century BC, when in the colony of Locri Epizefiri and later in ancient Metauria (today’s Gioia Tauro), the sacred olive tree was already cultivated and when a temple was dedicated to Minerva, to whom the olive tree was consecrated.

Our olive-growing culture thus has its roots in a millenary history, handed down to us through plants that have lived through centuries and millennia.

This is the primal strength of our Biodynamic MILLENARIUM extra virgin olive oil. In every bottle there is a story to be told: the “liquid gold” sacred to the Gods carries the ancestral energy of a past that has left its mark.

Its medium-intense fruity profile of green-harvested olives presents a perfect balance.

The characteristic notes of the Ottobratica variety reveal hints of wild grass, golden apple and unripe tomato, with distant nuances of wild thistle. On the palate, it is enveloping and vegetal, with a harmonious bitter and spicy aftertaste.

Producing this biodynamic oil has meant looking at our land and our trees as part of a complex universe, in harmony with cosmic laws and influences, with the stories and forces that govern living beings, planets and moons, seeking the right interconnection between earth, history and sky.
