Olio Verde Extra Virgin Olive Oil
2021 Harvest
Silver Medal, Delicate Intensity
New York International Competition 2021
Rolando raves: “My desert island olive oil—use it on anything and everything! Olio Verde astounds me each year. Accentuate the 2020 Harvest’s fruitiness by pouring it over a big bowl of spaghetti al pomodoro. Drench a piece of toast topped with IASA Anchovies or Branzino with this velvety oil.”
2020 Harvest Notes
Olio Verde was the first Sicilian olive oil made with 100% Nocellara del Belice olives and it continues to be a concentration of impressive complexity. The 2020 Harvest has the aroma of tomatoes, as if you’ve just opened a jar of tomato passata. It is very well-balanced, with medium fruitiness and spiciness in total harmony. It has a mild, soft nuttiness, and a hint of peppery greens that amuses the palate. The mouthfeel is unctuous and velvety, typical of Sicilian oils of the “New Generation,” which Olio Verde helped foster.
