Cancelli Piero

On the Pescara hills of Pianella, Cancelli Piero cultivates olive groves within the **Aprutino Pescarese DOP** area, a denomination spread across forty-six municipalities. From these, he produces an extra virgin olive oil with a green-yellow hue and a medium-light fruitiness, where herbaceous notes remain the most recognizable characteristic. It's an oil designed for versatility, capable of holding its own both as a finishing oil and for cooking. This character speaks more of coastal Abruzzo than of the inland. Here, the influence of the sea tempers the intensity of the continental climate, yielding oils that are less angular, more measured, without the harsh bitterness that marks the more internal areas. Cancelli Piero's choice is consistent with this balance: not to force extraction towards aggressive profiles, but to embrace the softness that the territory suggests. The result is an everyday extra virgin olive oil that finds its place on the table without overpowering, and which, through a single denomination, clearly illustrates the relationship between the geography of the Pescara hills and the taste of the oil born there.
