The Terre dell'Abbazia Extra Virgin Olive Oil from Ursini is obtained from a carefully handpicked selection of traditional Abruzzo's olives such as Gentile di Chieti, Cucco, Leccino, Olivastra, Crognalegno and Dritta. These olives are handpicked from small farmers from the first week of October until the last week of November and they are milled together. This delicious extra virgin olive oil has a pale green color with yellow hues. The aroma is elegant with scents of mature tomato and green banana. On the palate, it is slightly fruity with notes of herbs. The absence of any bitter or spicy notes makes it an ideal accompaniment in all types of cooking.
It is perfect with grilled vegetables, legume soup, pasta, meat, bruschetta, cheeses, caprese salads, cooked vegetables or for pinzimonio. Great to cook or bake with.
As early as the 19th century, the members of the Ursini family were considered expert olive oil growers and were among the most sought-after by landowners for advice on olive tree care. Today, this expertise has been enriched and expanded into various forms of oil production, benefiting from the creativity and innovation inherent in the Ursini family's DNA: the finest extra virgin olive oil in all its forms.
