ESTIVO EXTRA VIRGIN OLIVE OIL

Avanzi is a historic family-run agricultural company founded in 1931 in Manerba del Garda, on the Brescia side of Lake Garda. For over ninety years, the Avanzi family has passionately cultivated its own vineyards and olive groves, enhancing the unique characteristics of the Garda area. Alongside wine production, the company operates a modern olive mill where the olives are processed within 24 hours of harvesting and exclusively cold-pressed, producing high-quality extra virgin olive oils with an authentic aromatic profile. Tradition, innovation and respect for the local area guide every stage of production, with the aim of offering products that best express the excellence of Lake Garda.
Estivo Extra Virgin Olive Oil is a superior-category olive oil obtained directly from olives and solely by mechanical means. It is cold-extracted and has a free acidity, expressed as oleic acid, of less than 0.8%. It is produced from Casaliva 40%, Leccino 30% and Pendolino 30% olive varieties. The name “Estivo” refers to the fact that the olives are harvested in mid-October, earlier than the usual harvesting period. This results in a significantly lower oil yield, but exceptional quality. Estivo has a golden colour with bright green highlights. Its aroma is fresh and fruity, while the flavour is delicate and sweet, with a bitter almond finish. Ideal for dressing both sea and freshwater fish.
