Bruno Casagrande Farm |
| Caneva, near Sacile, in the province of Pordenone, upon the hills at the foot of the Cansiglio tableland (protecting them from cold northern winds), in a scenery painted by the intense green of the forests and by the emerald of the emerging waters of the Livenza river, has ever been a cradle of civilization ( the first built-up area on piles is dated 5000 years ago) and producer of excellent agro-foods (wine, olive oil, cheese, dark fig… ). |
| Thanks to the sightedness and to impressive works for restoring landscape of this important entrepreneur of Pordenone, a bare and, at intervals, steep rise becames a wide agro-food park with an ideal habitat for the olive and the grape-vine, enriching the panorama with the winding and harmonious courses of they rows. |
| The Bruno Casagrande Farm is situated in the western hills area of Friuli Venezia Giulia region, in the municipal district of Caneva (PN), upon sunny slopes, at few hundreds metres from the ancient castle of Caneva. It has an extension of about 42 hectares, 15 of which are cultivated as olive grove and 15 as vineyard. In a splendid natural amphitheatre grow 9000 olive trees which produce average 100 hectolitres of extravirgin olive oil and about 70.000 vines producing average 1500 hundred kilograms of grapes |
 |
Both the olive oil and the wine are produced with cultivation systems conform to the organic regulations (Reg.Cee 834/07 and 889/08).

‘The Doges’ Olive oil’ is at the top of the organic production in the Italian Friuli Venezia Giulia region because
- under the nutritional point of view (with a quantity of saturated oleic acid very very low: between 0,08 and 0,18% while a lot of current Italian extravirgin olive oils on the market are over the maximum knowledge limit of 0,80% and the friulan ones have about the 0,20-0,30%!), thanks to the methods of picking and pressing made in the own our farm, it is an healthy and perfect product;
- it has a very high organoleptic quality thanks to the organic cultivation
- it is typical of the Friuli region because made with olives picked exclusively in the farm olive grove largely composed with native cultivars
- the product has a price commensurate to the its typicalness.
The Doge’s olive oil is available in three types:
- the traditional regional BLEND olive oil , a mixture made with some different cultivars (between them also the native Bianchera), selected in guarantee of the best taste and organoleptic harmony
- the BIANCHERA olive oil in purity
- the SELEZIONE ORO-GOLDEN SELECTION olive oil , constituted by an original mixture of three rare and precious cultivars.

We named our product ‘DOGES’ OLIVE OIL’ because, during the most splendid period of the ‘Serenissima’ Venetian Republic, the Doges laid in supplies regularly in this area for their cuisine.
The Doges’ olive oil, golden green coloured, is without heating extracted in our farm oil mill from the olives just picked.
The cultivars of our olive oil are Bianchera, Gorgazzo, Casaliva, Grignano, Frantoio, Leccino, Maurino, Pendolino, Picholine, Coratina and Moraiolo, which allow an appropriate pollination and an oil well balanced.
The Doges’ olive oil is also at the high of seasoning capacity: you will need very little of it to making taste to every dish, from the garlic bread to the raw or cooked vegetables, fish and meat. For this reason our bottles have an hermetic cap which allows to preserve the pleasant smells and the precise characteristic of the product as so an accurate pouring out.
Our oils in few years have already obtained several Prizes. (see file)
