Extra Virgin Olive Oil Monocultivar Leccino

Our Leccino Extra Virgin Olive Oil is produced from 100% Leccino cultivar olives, grown on the shores of the Riviera del Garda Bresciano. This ancient variety, known for its vigor and cold-resistance, has been cultivated around Lake Garda for centuries. The olives, harvested at their peak ripeness, are dark purple-black in color and are also ideal for direct consumption.

The oil features a delicate and elegant bouquet, with subtle hints of freshly picked olives and a light olive fruity aroma. The flavor is full and harmonious, offering a rich sweetness with a perfectly balanced light intensity of bitter and spicy notes. Its versatility makes it ideal for pairing with cooked fish, white meats, vegetables with sweet notes, and fresh cheeses. Its delicacy also enhances the flavor of complex and spicy dishes.

Produced through a cold extraction process using a continuous cycle method, the olives are milled within 24 hours of harvest, ensuring the highest quality and preservation of their natural properties. The resulting oil has a very light green color with golden reflections and an exceptionally low acidity (0.2% – 0.3%), reflecting the meticulous attention to detail in every step of the production.

Due to its delicate nature, this premium oil is recommended for raw use, enhancing the taste of dishes with its pure and refined flavor.

Available in the following formats:

0.50L and 0.25L in glass bottles.
