The culinary treasures of Istria – delicious local produce that fully respects the environment

"Run by brothers Sandi and Tedi Chiavalon with palpable passion and professionalism, these 32 hectares and 9,200 trees yield about 800 quintals of olives and an excellent deep-green blend that marries Busa, Bianchera, Carbonazza, Rosingola and Morasola. Dominant notes of wild chicory, green apple, artichoke, freshly cut grass and tomato are layered with rich balsamic tones of mint, rosemary and sage and subtle hints of almond, while the palate delivers a full, assertive flavor where bitterness and spiciness are powerful yet harmonious." - Annalisa Leopolda Cavaleri
