Chiavalon Istra

~€25★ 93/100Curator's Notes
“Named the world's best organic olive oil producer by Flos Olei 2024, Chiavalon blends indigenous Bjelica, Buza, and Rosulja from Vodnjan's storied Istrian terroir into a product of enviable elegance. The Istra expression is a floral, almost aromatic thesis on the Adriatic coast: fresh almonds, ripe green fruit, a Mediterranean herb undertone, and a round, creamy mouthfeel that finishes with a polite, lasting pepper. Remarkably priced for its pedigree.”
