The 46th parallel marks the northernmost position in the world for olive cultivation. Here, olive trees grow in a particular combination of Alpine and Mediterranean microclimates, allowing the production of valuable extra virgin olive oils with unique characteristics. The Multivarietal 46esimo Parallelo extra virgin olive oil by Agraria Riva del Garda takes its name from this Mediterranean oasis in the heart of the Alps. What fascinates us about this product is the skillful mix of the three varieties from which it derives: the indigenous Casaliva, Frantoio and Leccino, which are harvested early to increase the organoleptic value of the oil, produced following the protocol reserved for organic products; perfect for anyone suffering from disorders related to dietary unbalances and heart diseases.
Tasting Notes
Agraria Riva Del Garda 46esimo Parallelo oil is an intense limpid golden yellow with green nuances. The nose is elegant and broad, with lovely fresh notes reminiscent of green almonds. The taste is full and enveloping. On the whole, it is harmonious with a prominent but slight bitterness and livelier spiciness.
