Les Mées, Haute-Provence
OLIVIERS & CO PRODUCER
Pinatel Family
Sophie and Frédéric are the 5th generation of the Pinatel family to cultivate multi-centennial olive trees in the Alpes de Haute-Provence.
The installation of their own mill in the heart of the orchards since 2010 has allowed them to optimize the freshness and flavor of the olives pressed on the day of the harvest.
The estate has 10,000 olive trees, the olive groves are located between 400 and 450 meters above sea level, the limit for olive growing, but they are spared by the 1956, which allows to admire today very old trees, of a remarkable size.
