Vargnano is an award-winning limited production monovarietal obtained exclusively from the Nostrana di Brisighella cultivars. The olives are handpicked and harvested early to allow the still green olives to express their best features.
Tasting Notes: Light green in color, with a nose expressing a remarkable aromatic intensity which recalls fresh vegetable notes with tomato leaf and artichoke. The palate emphasizes an aromatic fullness and closes in an elegant spicy green olive note.
Food Pairings: Best if used raw to enhance the flavors of dishes such as fish carpaccio, salads, vegetable creamy soups, cheeses and more.
Palazzo di Varignana started growing olives in 2017. Currently, they cultivate 200 acres of olive groves with a focus on rescuing and cultivating Emilia-Romagna historical olive cultivars - Ghiacciola, Nostrana di Brisighella and Correggiolo.
