DE RERUM NATURA
Superior category extra virgin olive oil obtained exclusively by mechanical processes from Monocultivar Coratina olives.
Oil
Scent of sun and wind
The extra virgin olive oil cultivar Coratina expresses the intensity and complexity of the Apulian territory. With its fruity and spicy character, with notes of fresh grass, tomato and almond, it offers a unique sensory experience. Its richness in polyphenols, natural antioxidants useful in the fight against free radicals, guarantees not only an extraordinary taste, but also multiple health benefits. In short, this oil ‘should be
sold in pharmacies' as the local elders say.
An excellence of agricultural craftsmanship that enhances the flavours of the Mediterranean tradition.
Coratina for passion
The olives are harvested when they are still green. Less oil is extracted than from a more mature fruit, but you gain in intensity, in fragrance. In quality.
They arrive at the mill as early as possible to be pressed after a few hours.
They wait to be processed in medium-sized crates to
not crush them and thus trigger fermentation processes that would alter their organoleptic qualities.
The extraction process takes place cold, below 25 degrees and in the absence of oxygen, to avoid the loss of aromas and a lowering of polyphenols. The result is an oil that
contains a very high quantity and a very low acidity.
We are happy with what we have done and with the result, but we are looking ahead, we want to learn, to improve.
Our philosophy
In a constantly evolving world, where technologies advance and trends change with the passing of time, there is an invisible thread that holds generations together: tradition. It is a bond woven of stories, of gestures handed down from father to son, of rituals that are repeated with affection and respect.
Azienda Agricola Telesio
Farm
The farm is located on the Murgia plateau, bordering the national park of the same name and close to Castel del Monte. A rugged and beautiful area, kissed by the sun and caressed by the wind. Here, men have always worked to make the land friendly, to soften and transform it.
These lands have been stripped of stones to make room for crops and to build dry stone walls and trulli. The fruits of this land have an uncommon vitality and energy. They are full, they are strong, they are alive.
Our trees are all of the Coratina cultivar, one of the most
prized varieties, which yields an extra virgin oil of
exceptional quality. We look after it with love and dedication, the pruning and
harvesting is done by hand, as is the vast majority of operations in the field.
History
In 2013, we moved from Rome to Puglia to take care of the family farm, which has always had a cereal vocation. It only produced a small amount of oil and wine for family use.
We fell in love with an idea, with a dream.
Now, after many years, much care and love, we produce high quality extra virgin olive oil in the Murgia, a hilly area inland from Trani, thirty kilometres from the sea.
We have a beautiful 4-hectare olive grove with 587 trees, no intensive farming, no automated techniques for pruning and harvesting, we do things the old-fashioned way. Calmly, carefully.
We are happy to preserve the environment and the land, to respect our roots and enhance the local olive-growing heritage through sustainable farming practices and a constant commitment to quality, tradition and innovation.
We want to share our passion for genuine and healthy olive oil, offering our customers a product of excellence that brings with it the authentic flavour of our land.
Telesio
The name of this oil recalls the name that Bernardino Telesio, the Renaissance philosopher from whom our family descends, gave to his most important work: ‘DE RERUM NATURA IUXTA PROPRIA PRINCIPIA’.
‘To know nature, man must, after all, only be able to make nature itself speak’.
We take care of what has always taken care of all of us, the Earth.
We devote a lot of time to it. Ever since
a handshake was more binding than a contract. We have always produced oil, grain and wine for us, for our children, and we continue to do so with love and passion that we mix with the earth as if it were fertiliser.
Here is our oil.
