The “Villa Igea” agricultural estate (Tenuta) was acquired by the present owners in 2001, who caringly transformed the property into the beautiful, yet highly efficient olive grove that is there today.
The property currently covers 17 hectares, which include two hectares of deciduous woodland, and 6,5 hectares being dedicated to certified biologic Extravirgin Olive Oil production. Fortunately, the vast majority of our trees are high producers, a benefit derived from old mature stock.
The oils produced in the grove are a blend of the more traditional significant olive varieties synonymous with the region, such as: – Frantoio, Leccino, Moraiolo and Pendolino olives. The grove has over two thousand fourhundred trees in production.
The Tenuta (agricultural estate) currently produces a high standard “Extravirgin Olive Oil”. In 2004 “Igea Oil” has been officially registered to be an “Organic product,” therefore our oil carries the correct designated labelling.

This Tenuta has been in existence for centuries. After some years of refinement, the “Igea oil” brand is now well established and is becoming known as having a natural outstanding quality, a subtle fruity taste and strong aroma, with a remarkably low acidity. These facts are encouraging, and give us confidence to continue the production.
