Oléiculteur
It is in the heart of the Riberal region, in the garrigue of Pezilla la Rivière and in the Salanque area, that Jany and Jean-Marc Salellas have invested in the family land to plant 8 hectares of olive trees.
This adventure began in 2005 when they decided to perpetuate the agricultural tradition deeply rooted in their family, restoring the land to its agricultural purpose and thus contributing to its development.
They wanted to reintroduce Roussillon varieties such as Olivière, Verdale, Courbeil, and Arbequina, perfectly suited to the schist and clay-limestone soils of this terroir, to produce extra virgin olive oils and flavorful table olives. Their Canigou black truffle olive oil, produced in their cellar, delights gourmets and enhances the flavor of their dishes.
The diverse aromas and controlled peppery notes of these olive oils make them exceptional products, where tradition and authenticity are cultivated by these passionate olive growers.
Jean-Marc, who runs the estate, will welcome you to the olive oil cellar to share his passion and offer you a tasting of his olive oils, whose artisanal production attests to the authenticity of the products.
