Superior category olive oil obtained directly from olives and solely by mechanical means. This Contarina Extra Virgin Olive Oil is a premium product. Produced in the olive groves of Valle di Mezzane, in the municipalities of Mezzane di Sotto and Illasi, on the northern hills of the province of Verona. This valley is a unique climatic treasure ideal for oil production: a marl and sandstone substrate, unspoiled nature, a closed valley that maintains consistently controlled temperatures throughout the year with excellent thermal variations especially during the fruit ripening period. The olives used are of the Leccio variety (pure Leccio and Leccio del Corno). This oil has a light fruity scent, tastes of green grass and tomato, elegant and balanced with a slight bitterness that fades quickly. Clear and bright, typical green with golden reflections characteristic of the cultivars of the Veronese hills.
