Novello Extra Virgin Olive Oil, was freshly made from the season's first harvest, during the month of October 2011. Although olives harvested during this month do not yield a large quantity of oil, the quality is superior and the acidity level at its lowest.

The olive oil is not filtered, therefore it retains all the flavors from the olives and the land where they grow. The presence of suspended particles is a proof that is an authentic olive oil. It has a deep green color with reflections of gold and an intense fruity aroma with distinct hints of fresh herbs, artichoke, and tomato. At the palate it reveals an intense fruitness with a strong, pungent taste, and a touch of bitterness. When used raw, this olive oil is a perfect condiment for salads, boiled or grilled vegetable. Its organoleptic quality are enhanced in soups and pastas, marinated seafood, au gratin mollusks, grilled fish, and roasted meats.
