The ancient & famous Tenuta di Capezzana estate is located in the commune of Carmignano, in the province of Florence. Olive culture in Capezzana dates back to Etruscan and Roman times. The Olive Oil is made primarily from Moraiolo, an early ripening variety, so the olives tend to be blacker when picked, resulting in softer fruitier oils.
Capezzana has recently improved its technique for olive oil production in order to obtain a fruitier oil with lower levels of oleic acid.
This oil is soft and fruity in style, with light spice and great elegance. It is perfect for drizzling over freshly baked bread and using in dressings for salads. |
