Don Raffaele Extra Virgin Olive Oil, Campania

In the rolling hills of Montemiletto, Avellino, Campania, Frantoio Don Raffaele stands as a family legacy of passion, tradition, and dedication to the land. For three generations, the Raffaele family has nurtured their olive groves with care, drawing on centuries of knowledge to cultivate trees that thrive in the unique soils and climate of Irpinia. Every aspect of their work reflects a deep connection to this land through sustainable, responsible practices.

The olive trees of Frantoio Don Raffaele grow amidst the limestone-rich soils of the Iblei hills, mainly of the Ravece variety, nourished by Mediterranean sun and gentle mountain breezes. This environment shapes not only the character of the olives but also the philosophy of the family, who view themselves as stewards of the land, entrusted with maintaining its natural richness for future generations. Led today by the latest generation of the Raffaele family, the farm embodies a harmony of tradition, knowledge, and care, preserving the cultural heritage and agricultural wisdom of Irpinia where each grove, each tree, and each season tells the story of a family committed to nurturing their heritage while honouring the unique terroir of their homeland.
