Principe Pignatelli di Monteroduni
The Pignatelli Company in Monteroduni produces and sells Oil and Preserves. The antique residence, dating back to the year 1611, is the historical seat of the oil press, administrative and selling head office. The Company is set in an area famous since antiquity for olive growing, “the green Venafro” cited by Horace for its oil.
The olive groves occupy approximately 30 hectares, on hills at 200-250 metres above sea level, in a sort of a natural ecological niche characterised by the favourable meeting of opposing bio-climatic elements, the Mediterranean and the continental. The organoleptic harmonious profile, whose absolutely low acidity is one of its peculiarities, expresses the excellence of the Pignatelli Oil both as a condiment, as well as a preservative for the typical products from Molise. A quality that is an expression of a consolidated company strategy appreciated by both national and international markets.
