Tenute Tufilli
Gocce di Canneto extra virgin olive oil from Molise.
Where the land meets passion, an oil is born, carrying the scent of the hills, the memory of tradition, and the soul of a place.
Our story
A family story, rooted in the land
In the heart of Molise, among the hills of Roccavivara and the Sanctuary of Madonna di Canneto, Tenute Tufilli was born.
In 1998, Simonetta and her husband Massimo left Termoli and returned to Roccavivara to raise their daughters, Federica, Cristiana, and Anita.
Their passion for hospitality led to the creation of Locazione Turistica Arcobaleno, now a collection of three guest houses and a starting point for discovering the authentic Molise.
Their love for this land, inherited from their grandparents and parents, naturally led them to olive growing. In 2010, they founded Tenute Tufilli. Today, mainly in Contrada Canneto, they care for more than 600 olive trees, following the natural rhythm of the seasons.
From these groves comes Gocce di Canneto, a limited-production extra virgin olive oil. Simonetta and Massimo share their passion for hospitality and olive growing with the same purpose: to welcome people, preserve the land, and tell the story of Molise.
Because getting to know a land also means tasting it. And every drop of Gocce di Canneto is an invitation to do just that.
The harvest
Picked at veraison, milled the same day
The olives are harvested at the beginning of veraison — when the fruit starts to change colour — while it is still young and rich in green aromas. Harvesting follows the rhythm of the season, and the olives are cold-extracted the same day using mechanical methods only, preserving the freshness and integrity of the fruit.
The blend
Our olive varieties
Gocce di Canneto does not come from a single olive variety. It is a blend, carefully selected from olives grown in our groves in Roccavivara.
Among the varieties we grow are:
Gentile di LarinoPendolinoOlivoneCoratinaOliva NeraOlivellaand other traditional varieties of the area
Tasting
Green fruit, intense and harmonious
On the nose
Fresh aromas of freshly picked olives, green grass, and olive leaf, with notes of almond and artichoke. A vibrant vegetal bouquet that evokes the grove in the first hours of the harvest.
On the palate
Lively, elegant, and persistent. Bitterness and peppery notes gradually emerge — the hallmark of early-harvested olives — adding structure while preserving a perfect balance.
At the table
Drizzle over country bread and bruschetta. Pair with legumes, vegetables, soups, and traditional pasta dishes. Excellent with grilled meats, lamb, pork, and roasts, as well as salt cod, oily fish, baked fish, and seafood stews.
