Description

Robust Intensity
First Prize – Intense Green Fruitiness
Mario Solinas Quality Award
2017 International Extra Virgin Olive Oil Competition
“Intense Fruitiness, fresh, very complex and harmonious, with notes of freshly cut grass, tomato, green apple and green almond; strong and astringent taste, the bitter and pungent intensity is comparable with the intensity of the fruitiness giving the oil a good balance     and persistence; it is rounded off by an intense taste of green leaf, aromatic herbs, artichoke, green tomato and green banana, which together make for an exceptional oil”
