PERANZANA

CLASSIC

MOLENSIS XXV LIMITED EDITION

The Peranzana variety was brought to the area from Provence in the 18th century by the Duke di Sangro. It has a fruity aroma of olive with grassy and floral notes, as well as hints of green tomato, herbs and freshly cut wheat. To the palate this oil is lightly fruited and balanced, bitter notes that blend with the slightly spicy aftertaste and delicate hints of almond and artichoke.

Yellow-green oil with an aftertaste of ripe tomato and artichoke.
