Immerse yourself in the sensual world of an exceptional olive oil, which carries the echo of the picturesque landscapes of Empordà, nestled between the dazzling Costa Brava and the majestic Pyrenees, in every drop.
This premium olive oil, made from the Argudell olive native to this fertile hinterland, shines in its 2024 vintage with an intense green hue, as vibrant as the first leaves of spring. It takes you on a unique olfactory journey, where the scent of fresh olive leaves, green nuts, and mastic dances through the air. One sip, and it spreads gently across the palate, unfolding fresh, spicy nuances reminiscent of dandelion and wild radish. But this is only the prelude to a symphonic ballet—a breathtaking interplay of kinesthetic and olfactory impressions: a pleasant bitterness and a sharply rising, warming spiciness meet balsamic notes reminiscent of savory, thyme, rosemary, and myrtle, which grow on the plains of Empordà.
Like a poem that hides its deepest verses in the final lines, the caressing aftertaste of this elixir unfolds: lingering, profound, and rich. Notes of artichoke, green apple, young walnuts, rowan berries, and young acorns whisper tales of the unspoiled nature of Empordà. A true work of art!
But no work of art exists without the artist. Behind this legendary olive oil stands Roland Zanotelli, a successful Swiss entrepreneur of a certain age. On his estate "Fontclara" in Empordà, he has fulfilled a lifelong dream, uniting the traditions and secrets of this wonderful Catalan region. As a passionate producer with Swiss precision and a Mediterranean heart, he has created an olive oil that is unparalleled in its quality and depth of flavor. A gift of nature, refined by the steady hand, the gentle heart, and the sharp mind of a man who loves organic olive cultivation like few others. A precious drop of poetry, born from the soil of a wonderful region and the deep passion of a great visionary.
