Superior-category olive oil obtained directly from olives and solely by mechanical processes. This Extra Virgin Olive Oil from Contarina is a premium product. A truly exciting oil, deliberately presented with a beautiful label to enhance the intrinsic qualitative value of the product. Produced in the olive groves in Valle di Mezzane, in the municipalities of Mezzane di Sotto and Illasi, on the eastern hills of the province of Verona. This valley is a particularly unique climatic treasure and ideal for oil production: a substrate of marl and sandstone, unspoiled nature, an enclosed valley that keeps temperatures always controlled throughout the year with excellent temperature swings especially during the fruit ripening period. This type of oil is called Francesco and is made mainly from Grignano variety olives and a small percentage of Maurino variety olives (10-20%). This oil has an emerald green color, with a medium fruity aroma and a taste of rocket and bitter herbs, wild flowers with a slight citrus aroma. Persistent and harmonious, it has a slight bitterness that fades over time.

Every product available on the marketplace is listed and sold by a partner seller indicated on the product page. The platform acts as a metasearch/marketplace: it facilitates discovery and checkout, but the sale is carried out by the seller, who becomes the party responsible for the transaction.
Shipping is handled directly by the seller partner. The package leaves the seller's warehouse, or its logistics network, and is handed over to the carrier. This model enables more efficient deliveries and ensures that order management is handled by those who actually have the product available.
On the product page you will find ingredients, allergens and nutritional information according to the data provided by the seller or manufacturer, i.e. the official label. If you have allergies or intolerances, we recommend that you carefully check the product page before purchasing and contact the seller with any specific questions.
The platform was created to promote and make Italian food Made in Italy more accessible. We select e-commerce food sellers with coherent catalogs and transparent information.
