1-Hour Private Tour of the Oil Mill with Tasting in Piedicolle

About this tour

Step into a small-batch olive mill in Piedicolle where every stage of production happens on-site. This private hour-long walkthrough traces oil from grove to bottle, with close attention to quality control at each point. You'll finish with a tasting of their oils paired with wood-fired bread, learning how their own cultivars shape the final flavour.

Highlights

• Watch olive processing from crush to bottling
• Learn quality checks built into each production stage
• Taste multiple oils cold-pressed from estate fruit
• Bread baked in wood-fired oven
• Small producer, personal attention throughout

What to expect

You'll move through the mill floor at an easy pace, seeing the equipment and process firsthand. The owner or a staff member explains how their specific olive varieties move through each station—washing, crushing, malaxing, pressing. You'll understand why timing and temperature matter for flavour and freshness. The tasting happens in a simple tasting room where you'll sample their oils with warm bread and learn to detect subtle differences in colour, aroma and taste. Expect 10–15 minutes on the mill floor, 30–40 minutes tasting and discussion.
