The area of the Lake Preola and Gorghi Tondi Nature Reserve expresses a unique and rare pedoclimatic richness. This is why Tenuta Gorghi Tondi has chosen to extract an Extra Virgin Olive oil from its Mediterranean fruits, and in particular Biancolilla single-cultivar, one of the most popular and widespread Sicilian olive varieties.
