Superior category olive oil obtained directly from olives and solely through mechanical processes. This Extra Virgin Olive Oil from Contarina is a premium product. A truly exciting oil, deliberately presented with a beautiful label to enhance the intrinsic qualitative value of the product. Produced in the olive groves in Valle di Mezzane, in the municipalities of Mezzane di Sotto and Illasi, in the eastern hills of the province of Verona. This valley is a particularly unique climatic treasure ideal for oil production: a substrate of marl and sandstones, an unspoiled nature, a closed valley that maintains consistently controlled temperatures throughout the year with excellent thermal swings, especially during the fruit ripening period. This type of oil is called Francesco and is predominantly composed of Grignano variety olives and a small percentage of Maurino variety (10-20%). This oil appears emerald green, with a medium fruity scent and flavor of arugula and slightly bitter herbs, field flowers with a faint citrus aroma. Persistent and harmonious, it has a slight bitterness that fades over time.
