Il Moraiolo Monocultivar It EVOO 500ml - Intense (Monovarietal)

Umbria’s Most Intense Monovarietal. Not for the Timid.

The Moraiolo is Umbria’s most celebrated native olive variety — a small, late-ripening cultivar that produces an oil of exceptional intensity, complexity, and polyphenol richness. It is the backbone of many of Umbria’s finest blended oils, but as a monovarietal it reveals its full character: bold, assertive, and deeply aromatic. Terre Francescane Il Moraiolo is produced exclusively from 100% Moraiolo olives, cold-extracted using only mechanical means to preserve every nuance of the fruit. This is a serious finishing oil for those who want their olive oil to make a statement.

Tasting Notes

• Aroma: Intense green olive, fresh-cut grass, artichoke, and green almond
• Flavor: Bold and robust, with rich fruitiness, pronounced bitterness, and a lively peppery spice
• Finish: Long, complex, and assertively peppery — a sign of high polyphenol content
• Intensity: Intense — the most characterful of the Terre Francescane monovarietals

How to Use It
