Frantoio Extra Virgin Olive Oil 500ml – Medium Italian Monovarietal EVOO

Italy’s Most Beloved Olive Variety. Perfectly Balanced.

The Frantoio is the most widely cultivated olive variety in Italy — the backbone of Tuscan and Umbrian olive oil tradition for centuries. It produces an oil of exceptional balance: fruity enough to be expressive, bitter enough to be interesting, and peppery enough to remind you it’s alive. Terre Francescane Frantoio is a true monovarietal, produced exclusively from 100% Frantoio olives, cold-extracted using only mechanical means to preserve the natural character of the fruit. The ideal middle ground between the delicacy of Leccino and the intensity of Moraiolo.
