TASTING NOTES
-
Color: Brilliant green of good intensity.
-
Aroma: Rich and enveloping. It releases vibrant vegetal aromas reminiscent of fresh olive paste and freshly cut cardoon.
-
Taste: Full, harmonious, and rich on the palate. Tasted pure, it shows all the character of a typical Tuscan oil: sweet and fresh on entry, it closes with a pleasant and decisive spicy note on the finish.
PRODUCTION AND HARVEST
-
The Olive Grove: The estate's oil originates from a modern grove, conceived and managed with rigorous criteria aimed at excellence. The dedicated irrigation system prevents water stress in the plants during the long periods of drought typical of the area, thus guaranteeing optimal fruit development.
-
Harvest Period: The olive harvest takes place right after the grape harvest, in the month of October.
- Processing: The harvest is strictly carried out by hand so as not to damage the fruit, which is placed in small perforated crates. Within just 24 hours of harvesting, the olives are delivered to the mill and cold-extracted, to obtain an oil of the purest quality and with very low acidity.
