Solivellas Frantoio 500 ml is an extra virgin olive oil made exclusively from the Frantoio olive variety by Solivellas, a producer from Mallorca. This EVOO combines the island's olive-growing tradition with the qualities of a variety native to the Italian Tuscany, renowned for its ability to produce aromatic and remarkably complex oils.
Frantoio is a variety particularly prized for its wealth of nuances and its balance between fruity, bitter, and spicy sensations. Cultivated in the Mediterranean environment of Mallorca, it offers an interesting gastronomic expression for those looking to discover varieties different from the most common ones in the Spanish olive grove.
On the nose, it presents an expressive green fruitiness, with hints of freshly cut grass, artichoke, and green almond, accompanied by notes of aromatic plants and delicate vegetal nuances. On the palate, it is fresh and structured, with a medium-intensity bitterness and a progressive spiciness that provide personality and a pleasant persistence.
Its character makes it an excellent choice to enjoy raw on bread, tomato, salads, and vegetables. It also pairs very well with fish, white meats, pasta, rice, legumes, and cheeses. It is especially interesting as a finishing touch on roasted vegetables, cream soups, and dishes where an oil with freshness and a more intense aromatic expression is desired.
