Only EVO, Only Sardinia

Our Extra Virgin Olive Oils

Born from decades of experience and a land generous to those who know how to nurture and enhance its fruits. Our extra virgin olive oils are produced exclusively from our own olives, grown in the Alghero countryside and processed within 12 hours of harvest. This ensures the oil retains its full nutritional properties, thanks to cold extraction and advanced, high-tech processing systems.

Our olives are carefully handpicked to respect the fruit and preserve its freshness.

At the mill, the olives are washed and meticulously selected to discard any unsuitable for pressing.

Using our cutting-edge Pieralisi machinery, we extract the oil through cold pressing to preserve its organoleptic characteristics.

Hand harvesting, cold extraction, and a controlled oxygen-free milling process guarantee oils with low acidity, making them highly digestible.

Our Cultivars

Raccolta olive

In our groves, we cultivate traditional and native varieties such as Semidana and Bosana, from which we produce our Sardinia PDO Extra Virgin Olive Oil.

The Harvest Process

Raccolta tradizionale di olive per l'olio Corax nel frantoio

The olive harvest takes place mainly in October and November, done mostly by hand using combs and nets to safeguard the integrity of the fruit.

The Milling Process

The olives are milled within 12 hours of harvest using a cold extraction method that prevents contact with air and promotes water conservation.

Eravamo lì in vacanza ed è una famiglia assolutamente carina. Ci hanno mostrato tutto ed è stato molto interessante. L’olio d’oliva è semplicemente di prima classe e continuerò ad acquistarlo online in futuro, come discusso. Per ora abbiamo fatto scorta :-) Grazie mille

Un posto meraviglioso durante il nostro viaggio attraverso la Sardegna! Cercavamo un frantoio dove fare scorta di olio d’oliva e lo abbiamo trovato al 100%. Abbiamo potuto provare tutte le varietà e osservare l’intera struttura.
Azienda a conduzione familiare molto amichevole. Olio molto gustoso in diverse versioni e diversi contenitori. Anche un fantastico regalo come souvenir! In futuro ordineremo questo delizioso olio d’oliva naturale solo da questa azienda olivicola.

L azienda agricola Corax di Francesco Piras a condizione familiare si trova vicino a un sito preistorico dove le ” domus de janas” posano lo sguardo nell uliveto meraviglioso dalle radici antiche, dal 1950 questo filo verde profumato avvolge questa azienda . Trovate olio etravergine fruttato, biologico DOP e aromatizzato in tutti i tipi di confezioni, quest anno anche da 100 ml per creare doni originali da far degustare a chi amate. Eccellenti anche le tipiche olive verdi sarde che vi consiglio di gustare. Posso garantirvi che una visita in questo meraviglio uliveto vi farà stare bene !
