Exceptionally rich in polyphenols, this extra virgin olive oil is crafted exclusively from Romanella di Padula olives - a rare, native variety now grown solely on their estate. Due to its uniqueness, it has been recognized as a Slow Food Presidium, dedicated to preserving this distinctive olive variety.
Romanella di Padula oil is a medium fruity oil with a sweet entry on the palate that gives way to the complex and persistent bitterness. Spiciness is combined with bitterness, giving great persistence on the palate.
Romanella di Padula oil pairs well with rich dishes such as legume soups and grilled meat.
The girl represented in the label is Athena, the Olympian goddess of wisdom and war and the adored patroness of the city of Athens, done by a local young artist.
