Description
What type of oil it is
Milleanni Extra Virgin Olive Oil by Donnafugata, produced in Sicily and cold-extracted, offers a medium intensity fruity profile with a clear and defined style. On the palate, it is very harmonious, characterised by a calibrated balance between bitter and spicy sensations that integrate naturally. This composition ensures a clear expression of the fruit and its original aromatic components.
Where it comes from
This oil originates in Sicily, in an agricultural landscape where centuries-old trunks stand alongside young productive olive trees.
How it is produced
Production involves hand-picking at the start of the ripening period to ensure maximum accumulation of polyphenols. Immediately after harvesting, the olives are sent for milling via continuous cycle cold extraction. Subsequent malaxation in a controlled atmosphere is fundamental for preserving organoleptic integrity, keeping the freshness and overall definition of the flavour intact.
