Description
This is a 2024 harvest, here is the current season!
Extra virgin olive oil made exclusively from Frantoio olives harvested from trees over one hundred years old. Almanacco is Viola’s most structured oil, built for depth, persistence, and serious cooking.
Craft & Origin
Almanacco is produced using only Frantoio olives from century-old trees, a rarity even in central Italy. These older groves yield fewer olives but offer greater concentration and natural complexity. Viola harvests early and mills immediately using a centrifugal press to preserve aromatic clarity and phenolic strength. The result is an oil shaped by age, patience, and restraint rather than yield or intensity for its own sake.
Flavor & Texture
Green and savory with artichoke up front, followed by almond and subtle spice. Long, persistent structure with a clean black pepper finish.
How to Use
Best with grilled or roasted meats, hearty fish, legumes, and dishes that can carry structure.
Why We Like It
