San Giuliano Extra Virgin Olive Oil , 101-Ounce Tins (Pack of 2)
The San Giuliano "Fruttato", offered in the Canadian market with the "Cuore d'Olivo" label, comes from the great olive oil processing tradition of the Manca family, aimed at satisfying the most refined gourmets. This selected olive oil has been obtained with loving care; hence, the Italian name "Cuore d'Olivo" which means "from the heart of the olive". A particular selection of olives and a natural process of decantation and filtration without chemical treatment make this oil the best choice for the most sophisticated users. Fruity aroma, hence also the name "fruttato", used for the European market, hints of wild grasses and a light opaqueness are the characteristics of this unique oil. The "San Giuliano Estates" in Alghero, Sardinia are a clear example of the evolution of the agricultural and food industry towards a reality where the boundaries are extended to include other activities, which, in this case, complement the Manca Family's tradition of agricultural production. The Estate groves, spread out in various locations, cover a total of about 600 acres. On the San Giuliano hills, where the oil mill stands today, the olive trees find an ideal eco-climate in perfect harmony between the sea and the hillside, one of the best exposures in the area for the production of prime quality Bosana olives. Here, the olive groves are tended more like gardens, always perfectly clean and neat, where fertilization is done with natural substances, as is pest control.
