Olio Extra Vergine DOP Valle del Belice

Olio Extra Vergine DOP Valle del Belice
The Olio Extra Vergine DOP Valle del Belice comes from northwestern Sicily, more precisely from the Trapani region – the heartland of the Nocellara del Belice olive variety. This olive variety is the basis of the protected designation of origin Valle del Belice and may be pressed as a single varietal.
Centonze processes exclusively Nocellara olives from this narrowly defined region. The oil has aromas of fresh grass, tomato vine, and artichoke – typical characteristics of an early-harvested, polyphenol-rich pressing. On the palate, it offers a medium-fruity character with a slightly peppery finish.
Versatile in the kitchen: use it over fried fish or meat, with vegetables and soups. Do not use for high-heat frying – its aroma is best enjoyed cold or lukewarm.
