Extravirgin olive oil

OROPURO

The land where the olive trees are grown are 450/500 meters above sea level, in the provinces of Chieti and Pescara. In all there are 700 olive trees of the following varieties: Leccino, Dritta and Frantoio. CantinArte controls the various cultivating steps through active checkups and analysis in the fields, when the crop is harvested and in the end, when the oil is extracted. In the olive groves CantinArte has for example checked togheter with some agronomists the trees during the year  in order to discover an eventual presence of medfly or olive fruit fly (Bactrocera Oleae) by using feromone traps. Thanks to the favourable height the trees grow on, and thanks to the high air temperature the presence of flies was minimum and far below the need of any treatment.

Production: Extravirgin olive oil - Oropuro

The harvesting

All the picking of the olives was carried out by hand,  olives were stored in perforated boxes of maximum 20 kg and then immediately taken to the oil mill where they were grinded within 24 hours time in a non stop production cycle. The early harvesting of olives in October, the perfect storing of the olives in suitable containers, the washing of the olives,  the leaf removal among the olives and the cold pressing, all took  place as rapidly as possible to guarantee the nutritional and organoleptic qualities of the olive oil. The extra virgin Oropuro, a result of the above mentioned production process, has a very low acidity. Its colour goes from green to yellow and its fragrance is rich and harmonic with a high note of artichoke and green grass. The taste is delicate and round with a note of tomato, lettuce and fennel, with a balanced spicy bitterness. CantiArte’s extra virgin Oropuro  is bottled the beginning of December.

Matching with Food

The Oropuro matchs very well with soup, roast fish, salad, consommé because it gives an incredible taste of “green”  and the fresh taste to the meal.
