Esporão's PDO North Alentejo Organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil is crafted in Reguengos de Monsaraz, Alentejo, Portugal, from Galega, Blanqueta, and Cobrançosa olives. It boasts a velvety texture with aromas of green apple, wildflowers, ripe banana, and red fruits, and a sweet palate with dried nut notes. Produced using cold extraction at temperatures below 24ºC, it ensures high quality and true terroir expression. This versatile oil pairs excellently with mushrooms, grilled fish, and is ideal for drizzling over dishes.
