Estate-grown and produced from the 2019 harvest of seven Italian olive varieties on our Ranch. Certified organic and certified Extra Virgin, our Traditional Blend has the aromatics of freshly cut grass and green olives.
The blend is quite complex, with beautifully balanced levels of olive fruitiness, bitterness, and pungency. The most prominent flavors in this year's oil include raw artichoke, slight green almond, tropical fruit, and green olive. There is a slightly herbaceous note from the Leccino olive, and the finish is smooth with mild pepper.
This medium-bodied olive oil is grass green at harvest, mellowing to a greenish-gold through the season. Our olive oil passes the strict quality standards of Olive Oil Commission of California and USDA to be rated Extra Virgin. To protect the oil from UV light, we use a dark antique green glass designed specifically to protect olive oil from degradation.
