Herdade da Ventosa Seleção is a premium extra virgin olive oil from Elvas, Portugal, crafted exclusively from Cobrançosa olives. It presents a fruity and mature flavour profile, derived from a blend of green and ripe olives, and is produced using mechanical cold-press extraction with minimal delay between harvest and processing. This versatile oil is ideal for drizzling raw over salads and pasta, or as a primary fat for cooking hot dishes. To preserve its quality, store in a cool, dark place away from direct sunlight.

Freshness & season

Harvest freshness

Harvest timing helps you judge an oil's age, while filtration and release style affect how quickly it is best enjoyed.

Why choose it

Choose a recent, clearly dated release when you want the most vivid expression of its aromas and flavour.

Worth knowing

A harvest date does not reveal how the oil was stored, so date is an important signal rather than a guarantee of condition.

Product informationHarvested 15 October 2023
Place & provenance

Sense of place

This oil is listed as originating in Elvas, Alentejo, Portugal.

Why choose it

Choose a clearly identified origin when local identity, traceability and connection to a particular growing area matter to you.

Worth knowing

Origin can make an oil distinctive, but does not by itself guarantee quality or a particular flavour.

Listed originElvas, Alentejo, Portugal
Olive composition

Single variety listed

The latest release lists Cobrançosa 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.
