Description
Our Leccino olives are a classic of Italian cuisine. Fully ripe olives have a sweet, fresh, fruity and fragrant taste. They are eaten as an aperitif or appetizer, but also in the preparation of Mediterranean recipes. All our olives are hand-picked, to ensure that they do not fall off, and placed in baskets full of water and salt for the appropriate time depending on the variety. At the end of the time they are selected and processed in the laboratory, washed, put into jars and then pasteurized.
The Company
A tradition that is renewed
Respect for the land and its rhythms, genuine products, flavors of times gone by. These are the three keys that make our pickled vegetables, creams and extra virgin olive oil special. A lesson we have learned from the family tradition, dedicated to farming for generations.
It was the 1960s when Neno and Nena Agnoni, young spouses, decided to take the step that would change the history of the family: buying a farm.
Neno and Nena live in Cori, near the Temple of Hercules. Every day they go to the countryside together on a Lambretta, and there they spend the summer, in a hut with straw beds. But the desire to create something with their own hands that will last over time is too great. Hence the decision to buy the Podere Copellaro, not far from the village.
The step is important and the economic sacrifice is great for them, children of merchants and farmers who have already been through a lot in life, starting from the two world wars. For forty years they have carried out this small but great project with dedication and trust, trying to save every last cent to meet the deadlines at the end of the month.
