At the end of the 19th century, Lorenzo had purchased the beautiful estate of San Lorenzo ai Colli. There he started a prosperous farm devoted primarily to the cultivation of valuable olives, namely the three typical Sicilian cultivars: the delicate Biancolilla, the savoury Nocellara and the robust Cerasuola. The blending of these olive varieties creates a sweet, aromatic oil with the unmistakeable taste of the first pressings of October, an affectionate tribute to the work of his ancestors.
This oil was produced from early harvested Tuscan varieties of Frantoio, Moraiolo and Leccino olives grown and pressed on the hillside estate of the Marchesi di Frescobaldi in Chianti Ruffina. Clear and intensely green, fruity, full, well-rounded and spicy.
The unmistakable pungent flavor is a result of the abundance of polyphenols, powerful antioxidants to which modern medicine attributes a fundamental role in defending the organism from oxidation and cell aging.
A monovarietal oil, only made with 100% Nocellara del Belice olives from the province of Trapani in Sicily. We freshly cold press our 100% Organic Unfiltered olives within hours of picking to obtain our premium extra virgin olive oil. Hand picked and pressed within hours of harvest, this oil is unfiltered with medium intensity, fruity olive aroma and flavor that makes it perfect for drizzling over salads, pasta and seafood.
Olio Verde bursts with the taste of ripe tomatoes, and hints of artichoke and apple. A medium-intensity olive oil, it has a round, silky mouthfeel punctuated by a touch of white pepper that amuses the palate, lingering flirtatiously. We are continually astonished by the complexity offered by the single Nocellara del Belice olive, and credit the pristine frantoio with delivering this unrivaled balance of flavors. For us, it’s absolute perfection!
Tasting Notes: A mid harvest oil by the makers of O-Med, Molino La Condesa has a fruity taste because the harvest of the olives is done right at the optimum ripeness point. This EVOO is well balanced with aromas of apple and a slight bitterness of radicchio and pepper on the palate. Olive Varieties: Arbequina Origin: Ácula, Granada, Andalucía, Spain Acidity: 0.3
