Description Image GEOGRAPHIC AND CULTURAL ORIGIN

Primi Frutti is an extra virgin olive oil blend created by Terre Francescane, a historic Umbrian producer with a long-standing tradition of olive cultivation and oil making.

Made from Arbequina, Picual, and other carefully selected olive varieties, the blend combines different sensory characteristics to create a delicate and harmonious oil designed for everyday use.

Its name, Primi Frutti, evokes the freshness and simplicity of newly harvested olives, while reflecting Terre Francescane’s approach to creating oils that bring quality and versatility to the table.

TECHNIQUE AND ARTISANAL CRAFTSMANSHIP

Primi Frutti is produced exclusively through mechanical processes, preserving the natural qualities of the olives and their characteristic aromas.

The careful selection and blending of different olive varieties allow Terre Francescane to achieve a balanced sensory profile, combining the delicate character of Arbequina with the distinctive qualities of Picual and other selected olives.

The result is an extra virgin olive oil designed to maintain consistency and quality, with a versatile character suited to everyday culinary use.

ORGANOLEPTIC AND NUTRITIONAL CHARACTERISTICS

Primi Frutti offers a delicate and harmonious sensory profile, with pleasant notes of ripe fruit and a smooth, balanced taste.

Its moderate intensity makes it easy to pair with a wide variety of ingredients without overpowering their natural flavors. The combination of selected olive varieties gives the oil a rounded character and a pleasant finish.

As an extra virgin olive oil, it naturally contains monounsaturated fats and compounds characteristic of high-quality olive oil.

CULINARY USE

Primi Frutti is an exceptionally versatile extra virgin olive oil, suitable for everyday cooking as well as finishing dishes.

Its delicate fruity profile works particularly well in sauces, dressings, vegetables, soups, pasta dishes, fish and meat preparations. It can also be used raw as a finishing oil, adding a gentle fruity note without overpowering the other ingredients.

Its generous 3L format makes it particularly practical for frequent use in the kitchen, from everyday home cooking to professional culinary applications.
Producers Image PRODUCERS

For over 400 years, Terre Francescane has cultivated olives and produced extra virgin olive oil in Umbria.

Founded in 1639, as evidenced by a carved stone preserved in the original olive mill, the Gradassi family has passed its olive-growing tradition down through generations.

Today, Terre Francescane combines this heritage with a modern approach to production, supplying Michelin-starred restaurants and renowned chefs while maintaining a strong connection with the traditions of Umbrian olive oil.

Extra virgin olive oil is at the heart of the company’s identity — a product shaped by generations of experience, a deep knowledge of olives and a constant pursuit of quality.

TERRITORY

Umbria, known as the Green Heart of Italy, is a land of ancient towns, rolling hills and deeply rooted agricultural and culinary traditions.

Olive cultivation has played an important role in the region for centuries, with its landscape characterized by olive groves, historic villages and traditional farming practices.

Umbrian olive oil is closely connected to the region’s cuisine, where simplicity and quality of ingredients are central. Terre Francescane reflects this heritage through its commitment to olive cultivation, oil production and the preservation of a centuries-old agricultural culture.
Sustainability Image Unlike industrial-scale producers in countries like Spain, Italy — and especially Umbria — maintains a traditional, sustainable cultivation model that uses fewer chemicals and respects the land.
Italy also boasts the world’s richest olive biodiversity, with over 500 olive cultivars, contributing to a wide spectrum of flavors and textures.
Terre Francescane embodies this philosophy, combining heritage and sustainability through short supply chains, clean energy, and social responsibility.

The company generates 70% of its energy in-house from renewable sources, and since 2021, it has supported the Il Serafico di Assisi charity, a commitment that further expresses its respect for people, place, and purpose.
