STANCIJA ST. ANTONIO d.o.o.

Description

Stancija San Antonio was established in 2008 in Vodnjan, and the first olives were planted in 2009. We process 7000 olive trees, which are ecologically grown, and the oil is ecologically certified by internationally-renowned certification, most notably the following varieties: Buža ženska vodnjanska, Kar Karbonaca bonac, Istrian bjelica and Leccino.

The olive groves are situated about 100 meters above sea level and about 800 meters away from the sea. They are located in areas where olive groves once belonged to the Romans, and the period that goes back to the time of the ancient Etruscans.

Over the past three years we have won more than 20 gold awards from international and domestic competitions. Out of the awards, we would like to emphasize:

• Three gold medals and one silver on the world championships of olive oil in New York, US in 2013
• Three gold medals from “Expo Milan, Italy 2013
• Five gold medals from “Smilje” in Split in 2013
• Gold and silver from the International competition of extra-virgin oil in Tokyo, Japan

The facility is located on the ground floor, and it is possible to enter the oil mill with a wheelchair. The approach is an extremely gently sloping ramp that is an entrance for everyone, including people with disabilities. The sanitary facilities are not adapted and we do not have a toilet for visitors. The parking lot is large, there are no marked parking spaces because it is an area for accepting olives for two months a year, and in the rest of the year it is a parking lot for visitors and customers.
