Among the Olive Trees of Arquà Petrarca – Visit and Tasting at Agriturismo Ca’ Dogaressa

In the heart of the Euganean Hills, among ancient olive groves and rolling volcanic hills, stands Ca’ Dogaressa, a family-run business that preserves one of the region’s finest products: the award-winning Olio de La Dogaressa.
The experience takes guests to the charming medieval village of Arquà Petrarca, listed among the Most Beautiful Villages in Italy and famous for having welcomed the poet Francesco Petrarca in the final years of his life.
Here, accompanied by the family that has cultivated olive trees with passion and respect for nature for generations, you will discover the characteristics of a unique territory. The volcanic soil and the unique microclimate of the Euganean Hills give the oil its unique aromas, flavors, and sensory qualities that make it recognized as one of the best in Italy.
The tour allows you to learn about the world of olive growing, the history of the farm, and the production process from plant to bottle, concluding with a guided tasting of extra virgin olive oil, accompanied by local products.
