About this variety

Extra Virgin Olive Oil produced from Verdiell olives is a true reflection of the quality and richness of the Catalan region of Girona, specifically the DOP Empordà and Les Garrigues areas. Characterized by an intense and balanced fruitiness, with notes of herbs and wildflowers, this oil presents a smooth bitterness and a spicy undertone that makes it ideal for pairing with savory and flavorful dishes. Its complex and aromatic flavor makes it perfect for pairing with grilled meats, roasted vegetables, and fresh fish, highlighting its ability to enhance the essence of any ingredient.
