Villalta is part of the farm estate of San Fabiano, about 200 m from the residence, one of the most prestigious and largest in the area that cultivates olives and grapes, producing an exceptional extra virgin olive oil and a prestigious nectar that you can taste and buy directly in the cellars on site.
