Oleopeñas Selection Early Harvest - Glass bottle 500 ml.

Early-harvest extra virgin olive oil produced in Valdepeñas de Jaén (Jaén) from Picual olives. Cold-pressed at less than 27°C by centrifuging the olive paste using only mechanical processes.

This extra virgin olive oil is produced in Valdepeñas de Jaén, a town where the olive-growing tradition is part of everyday life and the landscape. It comes exclusively from selected estates, situated in a privileged setting that gives the fruit unrivalled character and quality.

During the first days of the harvest, only the freshest and healthiest olives are picked, and these are pressed immediately to preserve their intense aroma, brilliant colour and the pure flavour that emanates from this irresistible olive juice.

The result is an elegant Picual, rich in nuances, with a complexity that reflects the authenticity of its origin. An extra virgin olive oil of the highest quality, born of respect for the land and knowledge passed down from generation to generation.

On the nose, there is an intense green fruitiness with aromas of fresh grass, green olives, olive leaves, almonds and tomatoes, as well as notes of apple and artichoke. On the palate, it offers a perfect balance between medium-intensity bitterness and pungency.

Food pairing: This extra virgin olive oil enhances a wide variety of dishes when used raw, such as toast, salads, carpaccio, grilled vegetables or cheese. In cooking, it adds complexity to light stews, pulses or vegetable soups, and also brings a lot of character to sauces such as aioli or dishes such as salmorejo.

The quality of Oleopeñas Selection Early Harvest has been recognised nationally and internationally at leading specialist competitions, such as the Athena International Olive Oil Competition, the Japan Olive Oil Prize, Jaén Selección and Expoliva.
