John and Tina DeRosa founded Redstone Olive Oil in 2013 in St. George, filling a gap that was obvious once you named it: the region had no specialty olive oil retailer operating from a standing position on sourcing. The store at 250 N Red Cliffs Drive, in the Shoppes at Zion complex, is built around fresh-crush extra virgin olive oils sourced directly from mills within three months of harvest and offered for free tasting daily.
The product line runs pure and flavored EVOOs — Tuscan Herb, Garlic, Lemon among others — alongside a full balsamic vinegar program in dark and white varieties, specialty spices, infused sea salts, artisan pasta including gluten-free options, sauces, spreads, and olive oil-based beauty products. A second location in Draper serves the Wasatch Front, but the St. George store is the founding operation and the one that serves Southern Utah's full-time population. The DeRosas run it as a family business. Over 14 years in operation.
**Verification notes** Website live; John and Tina DeRosa confirmed as owners; 2013 founding confirmed; address 250 N Red Cliffs Dr, St. George, UT 84790 confirmed across Yelp, TripAdvisor, and Shoppes at Zion directory listing; Southern Utah Local directory corroborates.
