Quinta do Crasto Selection

Curator's Notes

“The Douro Valley's legendary wine estate applies the same philosophy to olive oil that made its Touriga Nacional famous: late ripening at altitude, meticulous selection, and a pursuit of complexity over simplicity. The Cobrançosa-Verdeal-Madural blend delivers fresh olive aromas, grass, and apple with a satisfyingly spicy olive leaf finish — approachable enough for daily use, distinguished enough for a dinner table introduction.”
