2023 Olio Nuovo Extra Virgin Olive Oil - Seasonal, Limited Availability - Owner's Choice
Enjoy this unfiltered and polyphenol-rich oil made of Ascolano or Manzanillo olives, just milled in October.
This oil is very fruit-forward, with notes of ripe banana and tropical fruits, green olive fruit and freshly-cut grass, and a peppery, bitter finish.
Most olive oils are allowed to rest for 60-90 days after pressing, during which time the olive sediment settles to the bottom, before they're bottled. Olio Nuovo, however, is bottled immediately, retaining more nutrients and green, grassy flavor.
Due to the exceptionally perishable nature of this oil, it is recommended that it be consumed within three months of opening and within six months of the harvest date for best flavor.
While this is recommended as a finishing oil for its bright, crisp flavor, it also handles higher heat wonderfully, so don't shy away from using it for sautéing or frying.
Polyphenols: 469
Harvest date: October 2023
