Ortice Riserva extra virgin olive oil

Frantoio Romano selects and carefully processes its olives from secular olive groves with twisted trunks and characteristic silver leaves in the Samnium area, to give origin to the "Green Gold of Sannio": along the Beneventane Hills, Frantoio Romano’s “Riserva” extra virgin olive oil is born. A product that we particularly like, thanks to the fine organoleptic qualities deriving from the Ortice cultivar. Indeed, this oil is a nectar of unmistakable flavor and broad and elegant fresh tomato, that immerses us in the ancient traditions of the Samnites.

Tasting Notes

Frantoio Romano Riserva oil is limpid, with an intense golden yellow color with greenish reflections. The nose is ample and enveloping, rich in fruity scents of medium ripe tomato, white apple and ripe banana, accompanied by balsamic notes of basil, mint and sage. The mouthfeel is bold and complex, with distinct hints of celery, fresh broad beans and lettuce. Bitterness and spiciness are present and harmonious, with a sweet almond aftertaste.
