Colonna
Molensis XXV Limited Edition

 
€55.00

750ml

Extra virgin olive oil of limited edition to celebrate Marina Colonna’s 25 years of commitment to her Estate in Molise and Molensis is the Latin word to define the region; a blend of the three best varieties of the Colonna groves.
Herbaceous fruitiness, with clear notes of vegetables: green tomato and artichoke. Fruity with hints of green almonds and grass; a grassy aftertaste with balanced bitter and pungent notes make this oil ideal and versatile, at its best “a crudo”, drizzled on your favourite dishes.

Colonna’s history dates back to the 12th century. In 1996, Marina Colonna, the grand daughter of Piero Colonna who was the Governor of Rome and the daughter of don Francesco Colonna, a keen agronomist, inherited the 180-hectare farm, including 55 hectares of olive groves, cereals and vegetable crops. The estate of Colonna is located in Molise, that little-known region opposite Rome on the Adriatic coast. Marina farms meticulously in order to achieve high quality Extra Virgin Olive Oil.
