In food, it is spicy, robust, and vibrant, with a noticeable piquancy and a fine bitter note on the finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFrantoio is considered one of Italy's most aromatic olive varieties, prized for its grassy-green fruitiness and the typical throat-tickling pungency characteristic of high-quality fresh oils. Raggiola, a rarer variety from the Marche, adds herbal notes and more body to the cuvée.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHarvesting takes place early, usually between the beginning and middle of October, when the olives are still predominantly green – the earlier the harvest, the greener and spicier the oil. It is cold-pressed within a few hours of harvesting to ensure the fruit retains its full intensity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFrom the Guerrieri family in the Marche\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAzienda Guerrieri, located in the Italian Marche, has been cultivating its 207 hectares along the Metauro river since around 1800; it is now in its 6th generation under Luca Guerrieri and his children, Alberto and Maria Giulia. The family estate has practiced sustainable farming without chemical fertilizers since 2004. As Luca Guerrieri explains, the olives for the Frantoio and Raggiola varieties are intentionally planted on stonier, warmer hillside plots, as that is where the spice and bitter notes are most pronounced.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn addition to their wines and pasta, the family also produces this olive oil, staying close to nature with a genuine love for the land. The olive groves are situated between the estate's vineyards and wheat fields, allowing the harvest times for grapes, wheat, and olives to rotate throughout the year rather than overlapping. About 40 permanent employees keep the operation running through all three harvests, from the grape picking in September to the olive harvest in late autumn.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThose looking to discover the full range can find wine, pasta, and honey in the \u003ca href=\"\/en\/collections\/azienda-guerrieri\"\u003eAzienda Guerrieri collection\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eIn the kitchen\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA bold oil like VERDE plays the lead role when used raw, where its aroma can take center stage without being overshadowed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDrizzled over fresh bread, minestrone, hearty soups, or grilled vegetables, meat, and beans, it reveals its full spice. Its green piquancy is also perfectly showcased on a simple garlic and salt bruschetta or over a plate of \"fave e pecorino,\" the classic bean and cheese dish of the Marche.
