Gentile di Chieti

Native varietyfrom Chieti to Vasto: The Gentile di Chieti. The Gentile di Chieti is a native olive variety originating from the coastal strip stretching from Chieti to Vasto (CH). Characterized by its tall, ascending shape, this olive tree requires careful foliage management to avoid excessive wood growth at the expense of oil production. We are committed to respecting its unique characteristics, a principle that holds true for all olive varieties, with a special emphasis on the Gentile di Chieti. In 2020, we undertook the remarkable task of recovering over 500 of these native plants, each nurtured in a Polyconic Vase. The labor was demanding, but two years later, our efforts bore fruit as the plants flourished, boasting a profusion of new leaves and a bountiful harvest of olives . .
