The Company
Malvetani Company Our estate extends for over one hundred and twenty hectares between the town of Stroncone and Terni, in Southern Umbria. It is mainly composed of olive groves, vineyards, and lands for the cultivation of ancient whole grains dedicated to the production of high quality dry pasta.
The olive groves, distributed on hillside slopes, have terrains formed by deciduous deposits and loose, unconsolidated sediments rich in coarse skeletal soil with predominant exposure to the southwest, ideal for olive cultivation. The varieties currently cultivated are Moraiolo, Leccino and Frantoio, while others are being tested on new plots of land. The most present variety is Moraiolo, which alone represents almost 80% of the total olive trees.
The farm also owns luxury agritourism estates where from June to August guests can spend their holidays enjoying the beauty of Umbria. In low season, especially during grape-harvesting or olive-gathering periods (from September to November), our guests have the opportunity to experience the passion, effort and poetry behind the achievements of our premiere commodities.
