This premium Frantoio olive oil from Olivina's Livermore, California estate showcases the distinctive characteristics of this celebrated Italian cultivar. The medium-bodied oil presents a vibrant green grassy aroma with subtle peppery notes that gradually develop into a satisfying throat-catching finish characteristic of high-quality extra virgin olive oil. Cold-extracted from Frantoio olives harvested in 2024, this single-variety oil exemplifies the traditional pepperiness that has made this cultivar a favourite among olive oil enthusiasts. Ideal for drizzling over grilled vegetables, incorporating into Mediterranean dishes, or simply as a finishing oil to enhance the natural flavours of fresh salads and breads.
