The "Campo del prete" company was born in Viterbo from its owner's passion for nature and olive growing. This is a high school teacher who loves in-depth analysis of olive-growing which has declined in a short time in the acquisition of "polyconic vase" pruning techniques, with which he personally manages his own olive grove, and in attending courses oil tasting at the Special Action of the Viterbo-Rieti Chamber of Commerce, useful for obtaining and managing a quality oil.
The oil produced by the company is of its own production. Its family management gives added value to its quality: all stages of production are, in fact, carried out with great passion and respect for agronomic rules. Its product category is that of "Extra virgin" and it is produced from olive trees of the "Caninese" variety located in the Vetrallesi countryside (VT), of an ancient Etruscan settlement, in a modest area of ??2 hectares. The soil of volcanic origin is the precious nourishment of these olive trees, some of which are secular, and its agronomic management is in fact organic, albeit not certified.
The sensory characteristics of this oil, which reflect the standards of the "Caninese" variety, are that of having a medium fruitiness and a medium-light bitterness and pungency, with a prevalent scent of fresh almond combined with light sensations of grass/leaf and artichoke .
