A stunning, estate bottled extra virgin olive oil that is at once luxrious and affordable, Divina’s Renieris Estate Extra Virgin Olive Oil offers exceptional fruity character, a peppery quality reminiscent of arugula and a texture that signals its origins from the Mediterranean’s most prized olive groves in the renowned Kissamos region of western Crete.
DOP Val di Mazara (Sicily): fruity flavor with intense green tomato taste, mildly pungent and slightly sweet. Its delicate taste makes it particularly indicated for using fresh and especially with fresh vegetables, with grilled fish and for seasoning.
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.
This oil is obtained from the olives, the fruit of the olive tree, using exclusively mechanical and physical processes such as washing, decanting, centrifuging and filtration and in conditions that are such as to ensure that the oil cannot be changed in any way. This excludes oils obtained using solvents or re-esterification processes as well as those mixed with oils from other sources.
This elegant oil is made from hand-picked, cold-pressed olives which come from the surrounding community just outside the village of Sarocca de Lerida, near Barcelona in Catalonia. The Arbequina olive is the core olive in this oil–the most widely found variety in Catalonia. L’Estornell oils are of exceptional fragrance and delicacy, suitable for dressing salads and for those special occasion meals. Every bottle is vintage-dated.
