Great olive oil has a sense of place.
Ours is unmistakably Uruguay.
One family estate in the hills of Casupá. Olives picked and milled within hours. A quiet dedication to the details that make the difference between an ingredient and something you remember.

The grove.
The mill.
One address.
In 2004, our family planted the first olive trees among the quartz-strewn hills near Casupá, in Uruguay’s Florida department.
Ten years later, we built our own almazara—the olive mill—on the farm. It lets us choose the moment to harvest and mill the fruit within hours, with the entire journey close at hand.
That proximity is the heart of Tupercí. A direct relationship with the land, the fruit, and every bottle that leaves the estate.

The pleasure is in the pour
Make the simplest
things exceptional.
A piece of good bread. A tomato at its ripest. A plate that needs nothing more. There are moments when the last ingredient makes the whole dish.
Bread. Oil. A little time.
Pour into a shallow bowl and serve with warm, torn bread. An invitation to slow down and taste.
An estate. Many expressions.
