Francesco Pepe Erede Marinese Extra Virgin Olive Oil comes from the region of Campania in Southern Italy. The process to produce this oil is painstaking, with very low oil yield from a harvest of only Marinese olives. But the results are more than worth it: a top-quality olive oil with a beautiful combination of bitter and spicy notes. Marinese olive oils are relatively rare, and Francesco is among a small group of producers once again growing these ancient olive trees in a very specific area near the Calore River.

This monocultivar extra virgin olive oil features a medium fruity character with aromas reminiscent of almonds. This is a perfect olive oil for drizzling over a fresh fish or meat carpaccio. According to Francesco Pepe, some of his favorite fish selections for this olive oil include brill, orate, and sea bass.
