Produced in Oregon's Willamette Valley by Durant, this early harvest Frantoio Olio Nuovo is an unfiltered extra virgin olive oil offering a smooth, buttery palate with vibrant vegetal notes of celery leaf, chicory and radicchio. Its fragrant aroma leads to a bold, lingering peppery finish characteristic of the Frantoio variety. The team produces this oil from the season's first green olives, capturing the ultimate freshness without allowing sediment in the oil to settle - giving it extra flavour. Ideal for finishing robust dishes such as soups, stews, risottos or drizzling over braised lamb with roasted artichokes. Best consumed within 6 months of harvest.

Sensory Profile

Fruitiness 4.3
Fruitiness refers to the aroma and taste of fresh, ripe or green olives in the oil.
Bitterness 3.7
Bitterness is a positive sensory attribute of an EVOO. It can also signal the presence of phenolic compounds.
Pungency 4.2
Pungency is the pleasant peppery or spicy sensation experienced at the back of the throat when tasting olive oil.
Polyphenols 8.4
Polyphenols are naturally occurring compounds found in olives and other plants. In olive oil, reported phenolic content is a chemistry measure that can be associated with bitterness, pungency and oxidative stability; total phenols are not interchangeable with hydroxytyrosol-plus-derivatives measurement used for the EU-authorised wording.

Sense of place

This oil is listed as originating in Willamette Valley, Oregon, United States.

Why choose it

Olive composition

Single variety listed

The latest release lists Frantoio as its only recorded cultivar.

Why choose it

A release listing one cultivar is useful when you want to explore that variety's typical character.

Worth knowing

One listed cultivar does not record a percentage, so it should not be treated as proof of 100% composition without a source saying so.
