TO THE ORIGINS OF OUR OIL

Antiche Trame oil is a unique product that is produced in Riva del Garda in Trentino-Alto Adige, the northernmost olive oil producing region in the world. The favourable microclimate created by the proximity of the lake enables cultivation even on the 46th parallel.

The name “Antiche Trame” reflects a deep connection with the local history. The olive trees grown on the terraces of Garda Trentino represent a true cultural heritage, handed down by generations of passionate and far-sighted producers. They are not just fruit trees, but witnesses to a history interwoven with the human, cultural and geographical events of this unique corner of Italy.

The producers of Lake Garda are recognised at national and international level and the municipalities of Arco, Nago-Torbole, Riva del Garda and Tenno belong to the national association Città dell’Olio, which testifies to the strong tradition of olive growing in this area.

Antiche Trame oil is a story written by expert hands and hearts linked to the land.

EVERY DROP OF OIL TELLS A STORY OF TRADITION, SKILL AND RESPECT FOR NATURE AND CARRIES THE TASTE OF A THOUSAND YEARS OF HISTORY THAT IS RENEWED WITH EVERY HARVEST!

PRODUCTION PROCESS

ANTICHE TRAME OLIVE OIL IS THE RESULT OF A TRADITIONAL PRODUCTION PROCESS THAT IS CAREFULLY CARRIED OUT AT EVERY STAGE TO ENSURE A PRODUCT OF THE HIGHEST QUALITY.

The olive trees come from the indigenous Casaliva variety, typical of Lake Garda, known for its robustness and spherical foliage. Although it is self-fertile, it benefits from cross-pollination to improve the quality of the harvest.

The olive grove extends over 5 hectares and is home to around 1200 trees, which are cultivated with respect for the environment and biodiversity, using natural fertilisers such as organic fertiliser and nitrogen urea. The olives are harvested in October to obtain the best organoleptic qualities and are picked by hand using beaters.

The olives are then transported to the Agraria oil mill in Riva del Garda, where they are defoliated, washed and cold-pressed to preserve their quality.

INTENSE
TASTE

Antiche Trame oil is a genuine CRU oil. At first glance, the oil has a golden yellow colour, which is enhanced by green and orange reflections.

It is characterised by its rich and complex taste, which combines fruity and aromatic notes with a perfect balance of bitterness and spiciness. On the palate, it has a powerful taste characterised by an aftertaste of artichoke, which fades into nuances of tomato and a hint of almond on the finish.

THE FINISH IS LONG-LASTING AND LEAVES AN INTENSE AND PERSISTENT SENSATION THAT CONTINUES TO UNFOLD EVEN AFTER SWALLOWING.
