Crafted with the same passion and quality as their wines, this Extra Virgin Olive Oil is made from estate-grown olives at Allegrini. Yellow-green in color, this oil offers delicate perfume and a fragrant palate with notes of almond on the finish. Cold-pressing the same day as harvest reveals unaltered and natural flavors. 500 ml.
winemaker's notes: Winner of Italy's coveted Tre Bicchieri
award. Made from 100% Merlot grown in the Montiano vineyard in Lazio.
Montiano's soil is volcanic and rich in stones and the vineyard has a
south/southwestern exposure. The grapes were harvested in early
September. After fermentation, the wine was aged in Nevers and Tronçais
barriques for 12 months. Montiano has a wonderful deep, ruby red color
and a wide range of aromas such as vanilla and small red fruits with
layers of jam and sweet spices. It is full-bodied, round and soft on
the palate with an elegant and lingering finish.
