Product details
Taylor’s Chef’s Edition is a truly extraordinary olive oil. Produced from the estates of Quinta de Vargellas, Quinta de Terra Feita and Quinta do Junco, the same properties that produce the prized Taylor’s Vintage Ports. Interweaved into these vineyards are 17 hectares of olive trees, most notably: Madural, Cordovil, Verdeal Trasmontana, Molar and Cobrançosa varietals. The harvest is manual and takes place in November, the ideal time to pick the olives to produce the desired oil. To maintain maximum flavour and freshness from the olives, the time between picking and milling is kept to a minimum with the olives milled on the same day as they have been picked. To make the finest extra virgin olive oil, the olives are cold pressed. This preserves all its natural flavours, produces a low level of acidity and maintains its high nutritional value.
Varieties:
Madural,Cordovil,Verdeal,Galega,Cobrançosa
Tasting Notes:
Light golden yellow in colour with flecks of green. An intense green fruity aroma, tomato leaves, granny smith apple, artichoke and green almond. On the palate it is fresh, with a delicate spice that dances on the tongue and finishes with an herbaceous, medium astringency.
Storage:
This is an entirely natural product; in low temperatures precipitation may occur. This does not affect the quality of the product. Olive oil should be stored away from direct light and heat.
Perfect Serve:
Use preferably in uncooked dishes, because it loses flavour when heated. Use olive oil to harmonize the spices in a dish, or just to highlight flavours and to add body and depth.
