Castel di Lego Biancolilla Gold Monocultivar Extra Virgin Olive Oil 2021

This Biancolilla monocultivar comes to us from Ferla in the province of Siracusa in southeastern Sicily. The company boasts a long family tradition. Now in the fourth generation, and led by Giovanni Galioto, Frantoio Galioto is passionately devoted to authenticity and quality.

Biancolilla is medium green, with aromas of citrus, pressed olives and apples, and is good as a dressing on green and mixed salads. It is also excellent with fish, ricotta, tomatoes, and beans.

It is characterized as harmonious with delicate to medium intensity.

This is available in very limited quantities. The 100% Biancolilla olives are hand-picked from the trees.

Flos Olei 2023 (97/100)

The property is approximately 100 hectares with several cultivars. Tonda Iblea (70%) is joined by Marumurigna, Nocellara, Biancolilla, and Moresca for the balance. In total, there are 20,000 olive trees.

Best by July 2023.
