Experience an exceptional olive oil with Gattino Premium Messara PDO.
This 100% single-variety organic olive oil combines the millennia-old tradition of Crete with state-of-the-art standards for maximum purity and incomparable taste.
Origin & Terroir
Nestled in the sun-drenched Messara plain of central Crete, at an altitude of approximately 400 meters, our Koroneiki olives thrive in ideal growing conditions. The nutrient-rich soil and unique microclimate give this oil its distinctively fruity character and its protected designation of origin (PDO).
Craftsmanship perfection
Quality is not a coincidence for us, but the result of the utmost care:
- Harvested by hand: Every year in November we select only the best fruits.
- Speed is freshness: The olives are processed within just six hours of harvesting.
- Gentle cold extraction: We extract the oil at a constant 25°C under oxygen-free conditions. This preserves the valuable ingredients and delicate aromas.
- Light protection: To maintain the premium quality, the oil is immediately filtered and bottled in opaque dark bottles.
A feast for the senses
Gattino BIO Premium Messara impresses with its complex flavor profile. Fresh, fruity notes harmonize perfectly with the characteristic bitter and spicy nuances that distinguish a truly top-quality oil.
