Seize the Moment. 2024 New Harvest Capezzana Extra Virgin Olive Oil has arrived just in time for Christmas. For the past 25 years Tenuta di Capezzana has been our signature oil and like many of you we look forward to the new harvest.
Bursting with the peppery, fruity flavor of fresh olives with that classic "Tuscan zing" this oil is a near perfect balance of fruit and spice with a bright golden green color and a delicate fruity aroma. High in polyphenols and protective antioxidants beneficial to heart health, Capezzana extra virgin olive oil comes from the organically tended olive groves on the estate farm of the Contini-Bonacossi family in Camignano, NW of Florence that has been producing olive oil since the year 804.
Our partners in Tuscany take great care with their small batch production with a limited supply of oil available outside of Italy, producing estate farm olive oil made from olives that have been grown, harvested, and bottled at the source, ensuring the highest possible quality. Rich in aromas typical of the region, there is a one to one relationship between the ancient tree stock and the oil - the olives from one tree make one bottle of oil. It's as if each bottle of oil was made especially for you. Fresh, high quality, genuine extra-virgin olive oil with the coveted D.O.P. seal, a designation conferred by the European Union that guarantees its quality, geographical origin, producer, the variety of olive used, date of production that distinguishes it from other oils.
The olives that are used to make this oil were picked and bottled on the estate farm at Tenuta di Capezzna within 12-24 hours of production. Production methods are both traditional (olives are harvested by hand) and modern to best preserve the optimal scents, aromas and flavors of this exceptional oil. I've seen the new harvest of olives picked, pressed and bottled at Capezzana. Believe me there is nothing like tasting "new oil" and I can say, without hesitation, that you are absolutely buying one of the best olive oils* in the world.
It matters where you buy your olive oil and we appreciate your consideration and continued support in buying the annual harvest from Capezzana, a Cositutti artisan supplier that reflects our commitment to the culinary and cultural heritage of regional Italian food and sustainable farming practices and follow our purpose and pleasure "from the land to the artisan's hand, from generational producers, from us to you".
