Olive Oil Nobile della Torre

Nobile della Torre extra virgin olive oil is a blend of the typical Tuscan varieties Frantoio, Moraiolo, Pendolino and Leccino, with  the Leccino variety dominating. It has a high polyphenol and tocopherol content and is particularly popular in northern Europe. This is mainly due to its mild and delicate flavour, which is characteristic of the late olive harvest, which begins in November. It is the classic Tuscan oil, expressing the roundness and harmony of the colours and scents of late autumn, when the olives have reached full maturity.

Nobile della Torre is characterised by a pale yellow colour that tends towards light green. On the palate, it is moderately fruity, harmonious and well-balanced, with notes of ripe olives, but fresh and pure, with a bitter artichoke note and medium spiciness.

Nobile della Torre olive oil is suitable for preparing bread, pizza and cake doughs, for making an excellent mayonnaise, as a substitute for butter and for the classic bruschetta and crostini or to accompany chickpea and legume soups.
