The Peranzana variety was brought to the area from Provence in the 18th century by the Duke di Sangro. It has a fruity aroma of olive with grassy and floral notes, as well as hints of green tomato, herbs and freshly cut wheat. To the palate this oil is lightly fruited and balanced, bitter notes that blend with the slightly spicy aftertaste and delicate hints of almond and artichoke.
Colonna’s history dates back to the 12th century. In 1996, Marina Colonna, the grand daughter of Piero Colonna who was the Governor of Rome and the daughter of don Francesco Colonna, a keen agronomist, inherited the 180-hectare farm, including 55 hectares of olive groves, cereals and vegetable crops. The estate of Colonna is located in Molise, that little-known region opposite Rome on the Adriatic coast. Marina farms meticulously in order to achieve high quality Extra Virgin Olive Oil.
