Amante extra virgin olive oil comes from 12 hectares of olive groves, Picual variety, planted in 2012 at Herdade da Burquilheira. In a typical Alentejo climate, the olive grove grew with respect for the surrounding nature.
This is a high-quality olive oil, produced with extreme care, following an organic farming method. The olives are hand-picked in mid-autumn. In order to take advantage of their highest antioxidant content, the olives are transported to the mill on the same day. Within 24 hours, the oil is extracted at low temperatures, in a mechanical process.
An extra virgin, single-varietal olive oil with a perfect balance between intense and fruity, with hints of pepper and green grass. These characteristics make it ideal for meat dishes, cod or oven-baked vegetables.
