Description
The olive grove is located in the Lembo family estate, and consists of 200 organically farmed trees of two olive varieties. Produced only in limited amounts, the olive trees are hand harvested and pressed on the same day following a proud artisanal tradition.
Number of Trees: 200
Olive variety: Santa Caterina and Coratina
Harvest time: November
Profile: The oil is characterized by its medium density, green color with yellow-gold reflection, and just-pressed olive fragrances with traces of grass and fruit. The taste emerges quite pleasantly, with a spicy but never excessive note, followed by beautiful fluidity that caresses the palate. It is excellent with raw and cooked vegetables, salad, soups, roasts and red meats.
