Vineyard

GERBINO Organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil is a blend of 50% Nocellara del Belice and 50% Biancolilla olives from our olive groves planted on the high hillsides of Contessa Entellina, province of Palermo. The olive groves are carefully nurtured throughout the entire cultivation process by brothers Gunther & Klaus Di Giovanna, following strict organic methods.

Vinification

Cold pressed on the same harvest day to ensure that the olive oil preserves all of it’s healthful characteristics and freshness. The cold temperature and short milling time of 20 minutes extracts much less oil but the finest quality. The olive oil is decanted in steel tank, under nitrogren, and hand bottled
unfiltered.
