Harvested early from green Moresca and Biancolilla olives and bottled soon after crushing, this limited-edition olive oil captures the true taste of the Sicilian olive harvest. Fresh and intensely fruity, it reveals pronounced notes of freshly cut grass, aromatic herbs, artichoke, and green almond. The flavor is full-bodied and enveloping, with a lively balance of bitterness and spice that reflects its freshness. Partially filtered through fine cotton filters that remove only the larger solids, Frescolio maintains a naturally cloudy appearance as smaller olive particles remain suspended. Over time, a light, natural deposit may form at the bottom of the bottle — a hallmark of authentic, minimally filtered olive oils. Enjoy it raw over freshly baked bread, bruschetta, or legume soups. It also enhances grilled meats, hearty winter stews, and robust Mediterranean dishes. -
