The \u003cstrong\u003econtinuous-cycle cold extraction\u003c\/strong\u003e and the removal of the stones before milling ensure a sweet profile, entirely \u003cstrong\u003efree from bitter notes\u003c\/strong\u003e. Displaying a pale green colour with yellow highlights, the balsamic bouquet unfolds with scents of thyme, almond, white pepper and subtle carob. On the palate, a smooth mouthfeel integrates with a delicate \u003cstrong\u003emarine savouriness\u003c\/strong\u003e, finishing with a refreshing, clean acidity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhere does it come from\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eOriginating from the Caparrina grove in Menfi, this oil bears a \u003cstrong\u003eprotected Sicilian designation\u003c\/strong\u003e. The coastal environment shapes its character, imparting a signature saline freshness. Thanks to an \u003cstrong\u003eon-site mill\u003c\/strong\u003e within the plantation, the olives are pressed immediately after harvesting. This swift transition from branch to press preserves the crisp herbal nuances and inherent delicacy of the Biancolilla fruit. The resulting oil offers a refined regional expression, designed to elevate dishes with a \u003cstrong\u003eprecise aromatic impact\u003c\/strong\u003e rather than overwhelming weight.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow is it produced\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eCultivated through organic farming methods, the fruit undergoes a \u003cstrong\u003emanual early harvest\u003c\/strong\u003e to capture its peak aromatic concentration. Before milling, the olives are pitted, allowing only the \u003cstrong\u003epure pulp\u003c\/strong\u003e to be processed. A hammer crusher transforms the fruit into a paste, which is gently kneaded until the oil naturally separates in the decanter. Using a \u003cstrong\u003econtinuous-cycle cold extraction\u003c\/strong\u003e, the process avoids additional centrifugation, preserving a soft texture. This precise technique ensures a clean finish and safeguards the natural stability of the oil.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Planeta","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46133349253291,"sku":"60133","price":20.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0652\/6789\/2395\/files\/planeta-olio-extra-vergine-di-oliva-denocciolato-biancolilla-0-5l-2025_60133_1_ee1e9c96-79e0-4ab2-ac2f-6e95a8077e41.webp?v=1773814217","url":"https:\/\/www.xtrawine.com\/en-be\/products\/planeta-biancolilla-pitted-extra-virgin-olive-oil-0-5l-2025","provider":"Xtrawine","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
