The Domaine's olive oils, which have delighted all gourmets since 2008, owe their fragrant taste to the hundred-year-old olive trees which have always shaped the reliefs of the island of beauty. Corsica is a sunny land where olives can be picked when ripe because they have patiently developed all their aromas. The oils that are born from this ideal climate are therefore both fragrant and very delicate.
If the Corsican grapevines benefit from ideal weather conditions, it is the same for the Olastres (wild olive trees) that are a part of the spontaneous maquis. Hard-working, Gilles Seroin took care of glorifying this fruit between tradition and modernity. Therefore, the Sant'Armettu Domain produces an olive oil of extra quality, without any pun.

Coming from the sun, from work and tradition, the Domain's olive oils sign an island identity which finds its balance between delicacy and potency of aromas.Natural, flavoured, handmade and local, the Sant'Armettu oils are born from an expertise just as traditional as responsible. They can be "fruity", "not ripe" or "fruity ripe", they offer all the best of their flavours, in favour of our pleasure.
In Corsican, this literally means "foam". Spuma has a tendency to be a "fruity, not ripe" oil. Rather raging, it releases intense flavours of almond and artichoke.The marine ocean sprays rocking the coastline olive trees all year long characterize the unique savor of this fresh and natural oil.
At the feet of the mountains, some wonderful centenary olive trees stretch their highest branches in the direction of the sun. Once ripened, the olives fall by themselves in the net during the picking and later, offer a sweeter oil, with delicious aromas of hazelnut.Rather "fruity, ripe", Olealta acts like a real flavour enhancer. It is a gourmet and refined oil which magnifies each course from the fish to the cheese, and reserves a lot of surprises to the fine gourmets.
"A Zinzalla" is a variety of olives which flourishes both close to the coastline and to the mountains, we find it directly in Sant'Armettu on rather granitic arenas but also in Bicchisano on richer clay grounds. Thanks to a ripe fruit, picked on nets, it produces a black fruity oil, with gourmand hazelnut aromas.
