About this experience
I offer visitors the opportunity to learn about the world of olive oil, from plant cultivation to milling, from the point of view of our company, in business since 1949. Along with this it will be possible for guests to taste the gastronomic specialties of Gargano, not only oil, but also a choice of wines, cheeses and other products. At the request of those interested you can also visit our olive grove, where you can enjoy a moment of relaxation in the shade of our old trees!
