Marina Palusci EXV Extra Virgin Olive Oil 500mL, Abruzzo

Marina Palusci EXV is a beautifully expressive extra virgin olive oil crafted from Dritta and Leccino olives grown in the hills of Pianella, Abruzzo, in central Italy. Versatile, refined, and full of character, it is equally at home as a finishing drizzle or a brief high-heat cooking oil, making it a true all-rounder for the discerning kitchen.

Tasting Profile

• Colour: Intense golden yellow with light green hues
• Aroma: Definite and rounded, with hints of artichoke and wild chicory, accompanied by fresh herbs, mint, and rosemary
• Flavour: Broad and very fine, with tones of field lettuce and spicy nuances of cinnamon and almond on the finish
• Bitterness and Pungency: Present and well expressed

Perfect Pairings

Marina Palusci EXV shines alongside delicate and refined ingredients:

• Prawn starters and sea bream tartare
• Amberjack carpaccio and marinated sea bass
• Steamed shellfish and ovoli mushroom salads
• Broad bean soups and risotto with asparagus

Versatility in the Kitchen
