Duo Oil & Wine DOC

Nostrana is a historic olive cultivar, one of the most representative of the hilly areas of central-northern Italy. Its centuries-old presence testifies to its perfect adaptation to the Mediterranean environment of the hinterland, characterized by well-drained soils, breezy slopes, and a microclimate that promotes balanced ripening of the olives. The nose is intensely fragrant with a very pronounced fruitiness. The notes perceived are reminiscent of spices such as rosemary, bay leaf, and basil. On the nose, Vargnano extra virgin olive oil is clean and elegant, highlighting the characteristics of the cultivar. On the palate, it confirms its medium-intense breadth and lively fruitiness. The aromatic texture is broad, revealing clear herbaceous notes, hints of artichoke, thistle, fresh almond, and green apple. The bitter and spicy notes are sustained and well balanced. The spiciness stands out in a pleasant and persistent way, a sign of a high polyphenol content. The finish is clean, fresh, and slightly balsamic.

The history of Palazzo di Varignana is based on the border where typical Emilia-Romagna crops met those of Romagna. This is where our Sangiovese Superiore DOC wine was born, a wine that gives dignity to the roots of Emilia-Romagna and the Varignana area. Sangiovese is one of the most widespread and black-grape varieties that has found its home in Romagna. A wine suitable for every type of menu, from first courses to meat sauces, grilled and baked red meats. Sangiovese Superiore is one of the Palazzo di Varignana wines that can be tasted at the winery.
