Selvapiana Olio EVO

From the famous Selvapiana wine estate, one of the best Chianti Rufina producers, this extra virgin olive oil is vivid green with great viscosity. Fresh and clean aromas with notes of artichoke. On the palate, it is dense and viscous with lovely purity and intensity and a spicy, peppery character on the finish.

Selvapiana Extra Virgin olive oil is made solely from Frantoio olives grown at 250-300 metres above sea level. This is a late ripening variety, so the olives are greener when picked, resulting in spicy, green oil. Selvapiana is situated in the Sieve Valley northeast of Florence where a cool current of mountain air is funnelled through a pass in the Apennines down the valley. This makes it one of the coolest grape and olive growing regions in Tuscany, giving oils that are among the greatest and most spicy in Tuscany.
