Casaliva is an extra virgin olive oil from Comincioli, produced exclusively from the Casaliva variety, an indigenous olive from the Lake Garda area. The oil belongs to the “denocciolato” line – meaning the pits are removed before the extraction process – resulting in a purer and more refined taste.
Extraction is carried out solely by mechanical means and cold pressing, which preserves the natural aromatic and nutritional properties. This medium-intensity fruity oil is distinguished by a complex and pronounced character, with recognizable spicy and bitter notes, complemented by fine hints of fresh green clover.
Producer
Azienda Comincioli is a family-owned winery and olive oil producer from Puegnago del Garda, on the western shore of Lake Garda. Today it is run by the Comincioli family, who combine tradition and innovation in the production of wines and extra virgin olive oils.
Their wines are made from local grape varieties, with hand harvesting and careful aging. They are also known for their innovation “Paraluce” – a protective cover for wine bottles that shields the contents from light and preserves aromatic qualities. In addition to wines, Comincioli is internationally recognized for its olive oils produced exclusively from the pulp of the fruit, without pits and without contact with air, which preserves polyphenols, vitamins, and a rich aromatic profile.
This innovative approach has earned them numerous awards and the status of one of the most highly regarded producers in Italy.
