A Unique Moment
There’s a unique moment every year when the air begins to cool, and the days shorten: it’s the time for olive harvesting in our Rural Gardens.
Harvesting with Respect and Patience 🤲
Our approach to harvesting aligns with the philosophy that guides everything we do: respect, patience, and a touch of creativity. The olives are handpicked, with delicacy and care. It’s not just about gathering fruit; it’s about preserving everything the season, the land, and our work have contributed to creating. Each olive is a small story of time, sun, and care.
The Right Moment for Every Olive ⏳
The harvest happens at the right time, when the olives are ready, neither before nor after. Every tree has its rhythm, and each variety has its own nuance. That’s the beauty of agriculture: there are no magic formulas, only listening and experience. Our olive groves, nestled among the vineyards and Rural Gardens, teach us something new every year. The result is an extra virgin olive oil that reflects the character of our land: authentic, profound, and with a harmony that reveals itself slowly, sip after sip.
From Field to Mill 🏺
The mill is the next step, and we reach it quickly, wasting no time. Freshness is essential, as it’s where the most vivid aromas and flavors are preserved.
The mill is a magical place, filled for a few days with the scent of freshly pressed oil. It’s an intense, unique fragrance that overwhelms you and lingers in memory for a lifetime.
Each Year Tells a Story 📖
We like to think that every bottle of our EVO oil is the story of a season, of a unique vintage. Just like our wines, this story repeats but is never the same. The climate changes, as do the hands and smiles involved in the harvest. The taste of the final result changes, encapsulating everything that happened in the past year. And this is what makes each harvest, each vintage, so unique.
An Experience of Connection with the Land 🌿
In our Rural Gardens, olive harvesting is more than just a job: it’s an experience that encapsulates the sense of time and land, it’s sharing, it’s the pleasure of feeling part of a natural cycle that renews itself. 🌱 At Adagio, everything has a taste: even the waiting and the effort.
