These are two extra virgin olive oils harvested at their optimum moment of ripeness, resulting in an exceptional complexity of aromas. To select this optimum moment of ripeness, field monitoring is carried out, analysing the fruits from different plots, from which only those with the best parameters are selected. The aim is to strive for excellence, combining exhaustive management of the olive grove throughout the year to obtain olives with excellent characteristics, and control of all the basic operations of the production process in the oil mill.

The history of Finca La Pontezuela dates back to June 1974, the year in which a family from Mora decided to purchase some land located in the municipality of Los Navalmorales, in the province of Toledo (Castilla-La Mancha), a town that has been dedicated to olive growing since ancient times.
After acquiring this land, they decided to embark on an exciting adventure: the fascinating world that surrounds the cultivation of centenary olive trees, the care of the land and its landscape, until they managed to obtain a high quality extra virgin olive oil. A unique product, so typical of our culture and our roots.
The first thing they recognise at La Pontezuela is its privileged location. They love the surroundings, the colours, the orography and the unbeatable views of the Montes de Toledo. Moreover, it is complemented by being located next to the Cabañeros National Park and, at the same time, close to the Sierra de Gredos.
The possibilities of transformation and improvement of the environment encouraged this family from Toledo to undertake a series of improvements in relation to agricultural and landscape aspects. Today, it is as if they were in the heart of the Tuscan countryside, surrounded by centuries-old olive trees and their magnificent extra virgin olive oil, with sunsets that mesmerise all those who decide to visit them.
If we look at the meaning of their premium brand Finca La Pontezuela 5 Elementos Gran Selección, it represents the four elements of Mother Nature (water, earth, fire and air) to which they decided to incorporate, as could not be otherwise, a fifth element: the wood of their olive trees. Thus forming the central axis of their extra virgin olive oil: the 5 elements of nature, heirs of Western thought.
Their extra virgin olive oil is certified with the Protected Designation of Origin Montes de Toledo and endorsed with the SIQEV quality seal. In addition, they have more than 70 prestigious national and international awards that accredit the excellence of Finca La Pontezuela 5 Elementos Gran Selección. Countries such as the United States, Japan, Germany, China, France, the United Kingdom, Italy and Spain have highlighted the enormous qualities of this EVOO.
