AZIENDA AGRICOLA CAVALIERE GELSOMINA

Azienda Agricola Cavaliere Gelsomina oversees the Cilento landscape through five protected denominations, four dedicated to wine and one to olive oil. On the enological front, the winery works with Aglianico and Barbera between Cilento and Castel San Lorenzo DOC, crafting reds that reflect the volcanic soils and Mediterranean sun; surrounding these are the broader areas of Colli di Salerno and Paestum IGT, which expand the scope of production. The hallmark of the house, however, lies in its Cilento DOP extra virgin olive oil: green-yellow, decisive in its fruity notes, with that peppery finish that characterizes the oils of the area. It is the product in which the craft of multiple generations is concentrated, made with careful pressing and selection in one of Italy's most demanding terroirs. Wine and oil proceed hand in hand, but it is the bottle of oil that establishes the company's identity, a measure of a hilly land that rewards only those who accept its severe conditions.
