Giardini di Carlo

Organic - SICILY IGP

Dedicated to Carlo Barbera, the fifth generation of the family, it represents, together with the Lorenzo line, the flagship of production. It is an oil that is born in the lands of the Castelvetrano, Partanna and Campobello di Mazara countryside, where olive trees of the Nocellara del Belice variety are grown following the criteria of organic farming. The olives are hand-picked between the last two weeks of October and the first two weeks of November and pressed at the experimental mill of Premiati Oleifici Barbera, through a pitting process. From the pulp of these olives alone, a Sicilian extra virgin olive oil with Protected Geographical Indication is obtained, precious, unique and unforgettable.
