It is a beautiful story that recalls the title of the famous film “Life begins at 40” the one of David Muraca, agricultural entrepreneur of Lamezia Terme (Cz) that just at the completion of 40 years of age has crowned the dream of having an oil mill all to itself. We were in 2020 and in the Le Rose Estate – this is the name of the farm – here is born a modern system resulting from the best Pieralisi technology. From the Optima washing machine, to the new crusher, from the Simplex kneaders, to the Scorpion 5.5 decanter, up to the Valente separator, all the innovations have found a perfect synthesis here to ensure un extra virgin olive oil of the highest quality.
Un two-phase plant, therefore without the addition of water, capable of retaining all the best organoleptic properties in the oil, starting from the polyphenols, which guarantee an extra virgin able to best release a good fruitiness and a persistent aromatic networkbut also to result delicate in the mouth e distinctly healthy from a nutraceutical point of view. To certify the excellence of aromas and flavors land three women of the family extremely demanding and uncompromising: the wife Michele and theirs two wonderful daughters.
And, of course, such an accurate extraction process follows the scrupulous fieldwork that David Muraca directly follows in 20 hectares of olive grove owned and rented ones. There variety is the most autochthonous and famous that there is in land of Calabria, that is to say the carole, with its hints of fresh grass and artichoke, harvested between the end of October and the beginning of November and immediately milled to preserve integrity e freshness of drupes.
La degree in Agriculture, added to the precious lessons from grandparents, allowed David Muraca to be able to manage with competence, passion and high professionalism the entire supply chain which ends with packaging in half liter bottles o tin cans mainly sold through E-commerce. And the feedback is more than positive, with an electronic market that reaches both families is niche shops e restaurants in large part ofItaly, but also foreign buyers, especially in Canada e Germany.
A high-quality workmanship that rhymes, among other things, with full sustainability e and environmental protection. Why at Le Rose Estate nothing goes to waste. The by-products of processing, viz the wet pomace, ends in biogas plants o biomass for the production of energy from renewable sources. How renewable is the energy produced by photovoltaic panels placed above the mill that surrounds the olive grove, to make the Le Rose Estate a company environmentally friendly, respectful of nature and its generous fruits.
