Dievole 1090 Italiano Extra Virgin Olive Oil 2024

Flos Olei 2025 (98/100)

The talented craftsmen at Dievole have outdone themselves by creating 1090, with a name that recognizes the history of Dievole. A blend of Moraiolo, Leccino, Frantoio, Leccio del Corno, and Rosselingo olives, this selection gives life to an intense oil, with slightly bitter notes and a pleasant spiciness. This provides an enveloping experience, with an exciting crescendo, like a rhythmic melody that grows in intensity and conquers the senses.

Dievole produces this special extra virgin olive oil at Gaiole in Chianti. The intensely fruity flavor is complemented by notes of artichoke and fresh almond. It possesses medium bitterness, some notable spiciness, and a peppery finish.

Pair Dievole’s 1090 extra virgin olive oil with a variety of Tuscan favorites, such as bean antipasti, bistecca, chickpea soup, and vegetable soups. It also enhances the flavor of roasted vegetables, asparagus, and soft young cheese.
