DOMINUS

DOMINUS is produced from the very best of our crop, with fruit especially selected and harvested in November, when our Picual variety olives are “in envero”: changing the shade of their skin in accordance with the evolution of their ripening process, from intense green to purple. Even though olives harvested at this early ripening stage have a lower yield, the result is an exquisite olive oil of special quality that keeps every nuance of taste and aroma contained by the fruit before completing its ripening cycle. At the mill, the mixing temperature is kept exceptionally low, sometimes just 15ºC, in order to obtain an olive oil of intense aroma and great organoleptic complexity, ideal for all kinds of culinary treats and a delight the most demanding palates. Tasting profile Appearance: Intense green colour, because of its high content in chlorophyll Aroma: Notes of freshly cut grass, tomato plant, fresh wood, fig tree and mint In mouth: Dense, with body and clean taste Aftertaste: Good persistence and balance, fruity, bitter and astringent DOMINUS has been awarded the following Quality Awards: • Gold medal at the 2010 TerraOlivo International Extra Virgin Olive Oil Tasting Competition, Israel. • Bronze medal at the 2010 Los Angeles International Extra Virgin Olive Oil Tasting Competition, U.S.A. • Finalist at the 2009 Gran Picual Prize awarded by the Fundación del Olivar. • Bronze medal at the 2008 Los Angeles International Extra Virgin Olive Oil Tasting Competition, U.S.A. • Winner of the 2007 Alcuza Prize to the best Extra Virgin Olive Oil of the D.O.
