Situated in the picturesque Paarl region of the Western Cape, the 500-hectare Vesuvio Estates is home to more than 100 000 well-loved olive trees rooted in South African soil; and a cold extraction processing facility using state of the art Italian technology.
To produce our internationally-acclaimed Extra Virgin Olive Oil, Vesuvio:
- uses only hand-picked, selected olives nurtured on our Estate
- cold-extracts the oil within 12 hours
This fast freshness ensures that acidity levels are favourably moderated and the fantastic health benefits of the olive fruit are maintained. It is also what gives Vesuvio Extra Virgin Olive Oil its outstanding taste – a perfect balance of fruitiness, the hint of appropriately attractive bitterness and optimal pungency, with slight, intriguing variations according to climate and season.
