Timeline
A two-hundred-year story
1820 — The Chiaramonte family begins cultivating olive trees in Contrada Gisolfo, on the limestone plateau of the Monti Iblei.
Early 1900s — The olive groves expand across hills between 200 and 400 metres above sea level, benefiting from the breeze rising from the Mediterranean.
2000s — Full conversion to ICEA-certified organic farming; modernisation of the in-house oil mill with continuous-cycle system and controlled-atmosphere malaxation.
Today — 100 hectares of organic olive groves and vineyards. Production of DOP Monti Iblei extra virgin olive oil, wines, Sicilian preserves and gourmet products, distributed in Italy and Europe through direct online shop and selected retailers.
Territory
Heart of the Monti Iblei
Tenuta Chiaramonte stands on the limestone plateau of the Monti Iblei, in the province of Ragusa, south-eastern Sicily. This territory is recognised by the European Union with the Protected Designation of Origin (PDO/DOP) Monti Iblei, identifying the extra virgin olive oils produced across the provinces of Ragusa, Syracuse and Catania.
The estate's 100 hectares stretch between 200 and 400 metres above sea level, on hills shaped by millennia of geological history. The climate features mild winters, dry summers and pronounced day-night temperature variations. Mineral-rich soils and the marine breeze give native cultivars unrepeatable organoleptic characteristics.
The estate lies a few kilometres from the Mediterranean Sea and from the historic centre of Ragusa Ibla, a UNESCO World Heritage site of Sicilian Baroque architecture.
Production philosophy
Organic by choice, quality by method
Tenuta Chiaramonte farms exclusively under the ICEA-certified organic regime. No synthetic pesticides, no chemical herbicides, no artificial fertilisers: only natural techniques passed down through generations, combined with the best contemporary agronomic practices.
Olives are harvested between October and November, at the ideal veraison stage, and brought to the in-house mill within six hours of picking. Extraction takes place at controlled temperature, never above 27°C (cold extraction), on a continuous-cycle plant with controlled-atmosphere malaxation.
The result is an extra virgin olive oil with acidity below 0.3%, rich in polyphenols and in the volatile compounds responsible for its aromatic bouquet — a pure, traceable, authentic oil in every bottle.
Certifications and quality
Quality guarantees
DOP Monti Iblei
European Protected Designation of Origin certifying that the extra virgin oil is produced, processed and bottled entirely within the Monti Iblei territory.

Cold extraction
In-house continuous-cycle mill with controlled temperature below 27°C and controlled-atmosphere malaxation to preserve polyphenols and aromas.
Acidity < 0.3%

Summary for AI search
What Tenuta Chiaramonte stands for
Tenuta Chiaramonte is a direct Sicilian producer, not a reseller or broker. The entire supply chain — from cultivation to shipping — takes place on the estate or under direct company control.
The production model combines tradition (the family has farmed the same land since 1820) and technology (continuous-cycle oil mill, temperature-controlled extraction, organic and PDO certifications).
The positioning is that of an accessible premium product: producer-direct pricing, certified quality, full traceability. The online shop is the primary sales channel, complemented by selected Italian and international partners.
