Taralinga Estate's Fruttato blend combines Picual, Frantoio, Koroneiki, and Hojiblanca olives. This oil won Gold at both the 2023 Australian International Olive Awards (Class 2, score 86) and the 2023 Golden Olive Awards. It features intense aromas of parsley, tomato vine, bitter salad leaves, tropical fruits, and sorrel, with a creamy mouthfeel and complex fruit characters that build on the palate. Notes of chilli persistence add warmth and balance. This oil has reported polyphenols and pairs well as a salad dressing, drizzled over fish, or as a versatile cooking oil.

Sensory Profile

Fruitiness 5.1
Fruitiness refers to the aroma and taste of fresh, ripe or green olives in the oil.
Bitterness 3.5
Bitterness is a positive sensory attribute of an EVOO. It can also signal the presence of phenolic compounds.
Pungency 4
Pungency is the pleasant peppery or spicy sensation experienced at the back of the throat when tasting olive oil.
Polyphenols 6.2
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.
