The Estate of Azienda Agricola Vecchio Metato is situated in the hills nearby Colle di Compito, Lucca, in Tuscany, an area dedicated for centuries to the traditional production of the extra virgin olive oil, that is internationally recognized for its superior quality.

It ensures a significant improvement of the organoleptic characteristics of the oil, moreover, the olives are pressed every day in a modern certified olive press, to assure the best quality of an EVOO - Extra Vergin Olive Oil, certificated by the Consorzio Olio Toscano IGP.
