The "Superolio" from Tenuta Lenzini is an Extra Virgin Olive Oil organic that originates in Gragnano, in Northern Tuscany, from local cultivars: Frantoio, Leccino, and Moraiolo. Excellent on carpaccios, legume soups, and broths, it has a very clean, intense, and aromatic profile, with a pleasant but not intrusive bitter-spicy note, supported by aromas of cut grass, tomato leaf, Mediterranean spices, and fresh artichoke. 

"Tenuta Lenzini calls Earth. We have discovered a new Planet: it is olive-shaped and has a gravitational field around Gragnano. You have been telling us for a long time and we finally really believe it: our oil is out of this world." Thus, Tenuta Lenzini presents its organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil, or rather its super oil, in the true sense of the word: unique, stellar, and of the highest quality, which with just a few drops adds a touch of character to the best dishes, without overpowering their flavors and aromas. It is produced in the countryside of Gragnano Capannori, where the olive groves, some even centuries old, provide a backdrop to the reliefs of the Lucchese hills. This is a historically very suitable area for oil production, which still today represents one of the most important resources of the area. According to the oldest traditions of the territory, the olive grove features the classic Tuscan cultivars: Frantoio, Leccino, and Moraiolo. The Frantoio, with its decidedly majority percentage, gives its typical taste imprint, bringing fruity, balanced, and slightly spicy notes.

On the palate, it is bold, clean, and has great aromatic balance, with a prevalence of fruity aromas, accompanied in the finish by a pleasant and delicate spicy-bitter note. Perfect for dressing salads, vegetable soups, legume soups, baked fish, or carpaccios.
