Umbria is a land of traditions dating back thousand of years and a region of rolling green hills and many lakes. The land is well suited for the cultivation of olive trees which have been present in the region since Etruscan times. In the hills surrounded Orvieto, a city of extraordinary natural and artistic beauty, lies the "Vitiano estate", an ancient tower and now a farmhouse. Here is where Goccia Umbra® produces its extra virgin olive oil from hand-picked olives.
The company has successfully interwoven the ancient traditions about the cultivation and processing of the olives with the newest technologies in bottling, without sacrificing the oil's fragrance or genuiness.
In addition, Goccia Umbra® has developed a line of top quality complimentary food products that quickly became successful in both domestic and foreign markets, thanks to rigorous quality control and effective marketing (upon request the customer will receive a complete chemical analysis of any ordered product).
Marcella Patrizi and her daughter Silvia offer many products that reflect Umbrian culinary traditions and that are representative of the so called Mediterranean diet.
