Se-Do Monocultivar Coratina is an extra virgin olive oil produced by CaVi Uliveti exclusively from Coratina olives grown in the Vieste area of northern Puglia. Harvested at an early stage of ripeness and cold-extracted shortly after picking, the oil preserves a high concentration of polyphenols and a distinctly structured profile.
On the nose, it presents intense green aromas of freshly cut grass, artichoke, and green almond, reflecting the characteristic vegetal expression of the Coratina cultivar. On the palate, it is firmly bitter with a progressive, well-defined pungency that builds and lingers, supported by a long, persistent finish.
The robust structure and marked bitterness are typical of high-quality Coratina oils and indicate strong antioxidant potential and stability. The limestone-rich soils and Mediterranean coastal climate of Gargano contribute to its intensity and clarity of flavor.
Stored under controlled conditions to maintain freshness, the oil retains its balance between aromatic precision and structural strength.
Producer
CaVi Uliveti is a family-run extra virgin olive oil producer based in Vieste, in the Gargano area of northern Puglia, where olive growing is shaped by a strong maritime influence and a Mediterranean climate. The company manages the full production chain, from olive cultivation to bottling, ensuring traceability and consistent quality control.
Olives are harvested at an early stage of ripeness and processed shortly after picking, using cold extraction below 27°C to preserve polyphenols and aromatic compounds. The range includes oils with different sensory intensities, from structured Coratina-based expressions to more balanced profiles with pronounced green fruit notes.
Aromatically, the oils reveal nuances of freshly cut grass, green almond, and artichoke, while more robust labels show marked bitterness and progressive pungency. Production combines traditional agricultural knowledge passed down through generations with modern milling and storage technologies.
Particular attention is given to grove management and sustainable practices aimed at maintaining tree health and fruit integrity. The limestone-rich soils and coastal conditions of Gargano contribute to the structure and stability of the oils.
CaVi Uliveti oils are suited to gastronomy where intensity and clarity of flavor are valued, especially with vegetables, legumes, grilled dishes, and seafood.
