Az. Agr. COLLETTA FRANCESCO

Az. Agr. Colletta Francesco produces extra virgin olive oil under the `Dauno DOP` denomination, one of Italy's most extensive protected origins: sixty-one municipalities spread across the province of Foggia, on the Tavoliere delle Puglie. Adhering to such a broad appellation means sharing a territorial character even before an individual company's signature, and this Apulian producer works within that perimeter with a single reference denomination. The area is known for olives that yield oils with a decisive, far from neutral, profile. The color shifts from green to yellow, while on the palate, fruity notes emerge, accompanied by subtle spicy and bitter nuances—the hallmarks of the Daunian identity. It's an oil that reflects the agricultural heritage of the Foggia plain, where the appellation's vastness speaks to the scale of local olive cultivation. The oil mill does not open its doors to visitors, but its production remains a recognizable piece of a large mosaic, where each bottle adheres to the standards and taste of the Tavoliere.
