The Nostrana di Brisighella cultivar is grown on the highest slopes of the hills of Romagna, within the Brisighella territory in the province of Ravenna. Thanks to the high altitude of the hillsides where it thrives, this cultivar benefits from significant temperature variations and abundant sunlight, creating ideal conditions for olive growing. The Nostrana di Brisighella is an olive cultivar of great historical and cultural value, rooted for centuries on the highest hills of the Tuscan-Romagna Apennines. Its long-standing presence makes it a true symbol of local olive cultivation. On the nose, this extra virgin olive oil presents itself with bold intensity. A distinct green broadness emerges with notes of freshly cut grass, artichoke, tomato leaf, and aromatic herbs leading to balsamic hints. The olfactory bouquet is highly complex and harmonious, typical of the hillside oils from the Romagna Apennines, reflecting the freshness of the high hills. On the palate, it offers intense fullness with a smooth entry followed by a more layered taste that ranges from fresh almond and walnut to herbaceous notes and a light hint of artichoke. The bitterness and pungency are well-defined and prominent, carrying through with a long and marked finish: a clean, lingering spiciness and a bitterness due to the high polyphenol content of the cultivar, which ensures an extra virgin olive oil of superior quality. The final sensation is harmonious, elegant, and persistent, with a clean and slightly balsamic finish. Extra virgin olive oil with the Brisighella Protected Designation of Origin (PDO). Awarded by Gambero Rosso (Tre Foglie), Der Feinschmecker, and AIRO.
