Description
The olive grove is operated by the Lembo family, which has been growing olives and producing olive oil here for over 50 years. The olives are harvested and processed within six hours and arrive at the family farm’s mill directly from the fields.
Number of Trees: 200
Olive variety: Peranzana
Harvest time: November
Profile: A monocultivar that has a clear yet intense golden yellow color with a green hue. It has a well-balanced and refined aroma that is rich in fruit notes of green tomatoes, banana and green apple with distinct traces of parsley and basil. The taste is delicate and mellow with tones of lettuce and celery and a nutty aftertaste that lingers on the palate. The bitter bite and peppery tones are balanced in equal measure. It is ideal with hors d’oeuvres of salmon, marinated fish, bean salads, vegetable soups, first courses of shellfish, roasted fish, white meats and goat cheese.
