Product description

The aromatic profile of this Lafonte extra virgin olive oil, produced in the hills of Varignana, in Castel San Pietro Terme (Bologna), in Emilia-Romagna, is distinguished by its distinctive character: a youthful fruitiness, with intense hints of green and vegetal notes, rich in nuances and complexity. Among the most recognisable sensations are hints of aromatic herbs and green tomato leaves, accompanied by hints of bitter vegetables, almonds and light balsamic notes, rounded off by chicory and wild herbs.

The nose reveals a crisp, vigorous and exceptionally clean bouquet. On the palate, the same elegant austerity is confirmed, with a decisive balance that expresses strength and character both on the nose and in the mouth.

On the palate, the decisive, full-bodied and elegant structure enhances the crisp and lively bitter and spicy notes. Hints of chicory, radicchio and almond emerge, enriching its authentic and distinctive character.

Guided Wine and Oil Tastings

We offer four guided itineraries: the Oil Tasting, dedicated to our extra virgin olive oils, and the Superior, Premium, and Gold tastings, which pair our oils with the estate's wines—ranging from Sangiovese Superiore DOC and Albana Romagna DOCG to the Villa Amagioia traditional method sparkling wines. The experiences vary by the number of wine glasses and oils tasted, lasting between one hour and one hour and a half. Each tasting is accompanied by the story of the estate's production cycle, from vineyard to bottle and from olive grove to mill.
