Superior category olive oil obtained directly from olives and solely by mechanical means. This Olio Extravergine di Oliva from Contarina is a premium product. Produced in the olive groves in Valle di Mezzane, in the municipalities of Mezzane di Sotto and Illasi, on 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 uncontaminated nature, a closed valley that maintains controlled temperatures throughout the year with excellent temperature variations especially during the fruit ripening period. This type of oil is called Francesco and is mainly composed of Grignano variety olives and a small percentage of Maurino variety (10-20%). This oil has an emerald green color, with a medium fruity scent and a flavor of arugula and slightly bitter herbs, wildflowers with a light citrus aroma. Persistent and harmonious, it has a slight bitterness that fades over time.
