Reviews
"The Virzì home oil is a beautiful example of how the cultivation and processing in biological can give quality products. It is a blend of Nocellara Etnea, Biancolilla and Ogliarola Messinese and is able to express all the elegance of these cultivars and the territory of the Parco dei Nebrodi in Sicily. The land where their olive groves grow is highly evocative, with a fantastic window overlooking the volcano Etna. Virzì's oil has a medium intensity to the nose and expresses fruity and floral notes of apple, freshly cut grass, sweet almond and tomato leaf. Bitterness and pungency are delicate and suggest a perfect combination of the oil with a variety of dishes" ExtraEvo
