Extra Virgin Olive Oil of Cortona
Sabatini Oil
From Sabatini family estate in Cortona
This precious and unfiltered Extra Virgin Olive Oil, with its low acidity and high antioxidant polyphenols, has a strong and robust flavor.
A fundamental element in Mediterranean cuisine, extra virgin olive oil, and especially Tuscan EVOO, is recognized for both its nutritional qualities and excellent flavors.
Our olive oil production has always been a family matter, a question of quality, of uncountable hours spent outdoors among the trees, not a business affair

When the Sabatini Family settled in the area in 1910, they discovered that the property in Teccognano, Cortona, had 3600 healthy olive trees of different varieties. Ugo Sabatini, master olive grower, oversees the care of the trees, dedicating his time to keeping them in top form, and opting for traditional methods of production.
Sabatini Oil is created with the typical Tuscan blend, the olive trees are pruned and harvested only by hand, and no chemicals or fertilizers are used.
Harvest in the autumn is a moment of togetherness and celebration, followed by the “cold-press” milling of the olives. The oil is allowed to decant naturally in terracotta jars until the spring, when it is bottled.
This robust extra virgin olive oil is naturally rich in polyphenols. It has a brilliant, emerald green color, the scent of fresh grass and artichokes, and an intensely spicy flavor. Enjoy it on raw seafood, meat and vegetable carpaccio.
Sabatini Oil is all about quality. It’s for people who seek an excellent, small batch production: the trees and the soil are not subjected to any chemical interventions, the olives are hand-picked when they’re perfectly ripe and milled the same day, and the oil is carefully stored in optimal conditions
