Sea, land, and the olive: a dialogue between two terroirs

Šibenik-Knin County is a unique place where two worlds meet in a small area: the world of the sea and the world of the land. These are the blue and green zones, two sides of the same olive-growing identity, two terroirs that together create the range and variety of Šibenik-Knin County oils.

In the blue zone, Oblica, Levantinka, and Lastovka stand out, with Oblica best showcasing a pronounced varietal character and expressive polyphenol values. Oils from this zone carry a full structure, dominated by citrus notes and rich complexity, with a strong Mediterranean tone.

In the green zone, the soils are deeper, clayey, and richer in moisture, allowing the fruit to grow more steadily and develop a complex aromatic profile. In such conditions, Krvavica, an indigenous variety of this area, comes into full expression, while introduced varieties such as Leccino, Bjelica, Frantoio, and Pendolino complement the diversity of the continental zone. Oils from the green zone are recognised for their freshness, fruitiness, and harmony, each reflecting the slower pace of ripening and the strength of the soil in which the olive grows.

Together, the blue and green zones form a bilingual olive-growing landscape – one bright and open, the other quieter and more layered.
