In the Campania region, Antonino Mennella is known as the creator of fantastic oils. Among these, Madonna Dell’Olivo “Itran’s” extra virgin olive oil from pitted olives, in the province of Salerno - whose name derives from the cultivar of origin - is worthy of mention. The Itrana gives us an elegant yet strong, spicy and citrus oil, with an extreme versatility that rewards this product and its producer: what fascinates us is the charge of flavors and scents that the oil is able to transmit, leaving all the taste of the Amalfi Coast on the palate.
Tasting Notes
Madonna Dell’Olivo "Itran’s" oil is limpid, with a beautifully intense golden yellow color with light green tonalities. The nose is full and enveloping, rich in balsamic hints of mint, basil and parsley, with fruity notes of medium ripe tomato, banana and white apple. Fine and complex on the palate, it has a vegetable flavor of celery, chicory and wild lettuce. Powerful bitterness and strong spiciness.
