2025 marks an exciting milestone for Vacation in Sicily with the launch of Azienda Agricola Monte Riparato. Born from a deep passion for our land, this farm was created to produce an exceptional Extra Virgin Olive Oil that captures the true essence, aromas, and heritage of the Caltavuturo hills.

The ancient Calamignara cultivar: resilience and longevity

Our groves are home to Calamignara olive trees—an ancient native variety renowned for its strength, adaptability, and extraordinary lifespan. These historic trees yield unique olives packed with natural polyphenols. As powerful antioxidants, polyphenols are a cornerstone of the Mediterranean diet, supporting daily health and well-being.

Artisanal care and sustainable farming

To ensure unmatched quality, we oversee every stage of production with meticulous care and deep respect for the environment:

• 100% hand-harvested: we harvest every olive by hand, gently working the branches to protect both the tree and the fruit.
• Ethical and wildlife-friendly: our harvesting methods safeguard the local ecosystem, ensuring birds and insects in our countryside remain completely undisturbed.
• Cold-pressed within 24 hours: the journey from tree to mill takes less than a day. Cold extraction within 24 hours locks in the oil’s vital nutrients, vibrant fresh scents, and natural flavor.
• Complete traceability: we offer a fully transparent, zero-kilometer supply chain straight from our groves in Caltavuturo to your table.

A thoughtful gift for any occasion

With its smooth, balanced flavor profile, our Extra Virgin Olive Oil adds depth to traditional dishes and serves as a refined gift for holidays and celebrations. Bringing home a bottle (or even gifting one to someone else) means capturing an authentic slice of Sicily—crafted by sunshine, unspoiled nature, and time-honored traditions.
