Organic Olive Oil from the Berici Hills.

Olive cultivation on Del Rebene lands has ancient origins. The first traces of it in land registry records date back to the late 1700s.
Since the 1990s, Francesco has been passionately working to restore the centuries-old stone terraces, where he has replanted 3 hectares of olive trees, mostly native varieties, such as the Rasara. Widespread since the late Middle Ages, the Rasara produces a particularly delicate and fruity oil, rich in polyphenols.
The Leccino and Pendolino cultivars, always used alongside the Rasara, allow for a balanced blend we call “ORO.”
The Coratina cultivar, native to southern Italy and widespread throughout Italy, yields excellent organoleptic results here and is harvested separately and also offered as a single-cultivar version, like the Rasara.
The 700-tree olive grove is managed according to the D.O.P. regulations. Veneto Euganei and Berici.

The south/southeast exposure, the calcareous soil with an average slope of over 40%, and constant ventilation favor olive cultivation.
The olive grove, surrounded by woods, far from sources of contamination, and cultivated organically, allows us to obtain perfectly healthy olives free of chemical residues, as we do not use pesticides.
Pesticides, on the other hand, are used in conventional cultivation because they are more economical and easy to manage.
Del Rebene extra virgin olive oils have an exceptionally high polyphenol content: above 400-500 mg/kg, and the acidity is very low, between 0.1 and 0.2% oleic acid.
The olives are hand-picked and taken within 12 hours to the nearby organic mill for defoliation, washing, and cold pressing at approximately 28°C.
The oil is stored in steel tanks under argon gas to protect it from oxidation. It is then packaged in 0.50-liter glass bottles.
