 Marqués de Valdueza Extra Virgin Olive Oil Estate bottled On their estate in southwestern Spain, where modern technology grows on ancient soil and Roman genius, the Álvarez de Toledo family, a centuries old lineage with a tradition of service to the King and Empire, carefully grow four varieties of olives to be crafted into one of the most distinctive and acclaimed olive oils in the market. The Marqués de Valdueza Extra Virgin Olive Oil is fruity and elegant, to season salads and drizzle on bread, on grilled fish, on corn cobs, to make mayonnaises, aliolis, and gazpachos. The secret of excellence: the trees prosper under tender care and close observation; the olives are carefully picked at the peak of maturity and rushed to the almazara, (arab word for oil mill) on the estate for quick processing and storing under inert conditions. The artful blending of the four varietal oils (morisca, hojiblanca, picual and arbequina) results in this extraordinary olive oil, nominated for a 2006 NASFT award. Buy Now! |
