Zagarello Olive Oil Extra Virgin 750 ml — Single-Estate Sicilian Nocellara del Belice, Cold-Pressed, Low Acidity

Zagarello 100% Traceable Italian Olive Oil Extra Virgin is a single-estate Sicilian EVOO—cold-pressed Nocellara del Belice olives with a peppery, grassy profile and full traceability to the grove.

Harvested on a family-run 50-acre estate in Sicily and produced by four generations of the Accardo family, this 750 ml bottle holds a single-varietal, unblended extra virgin olive oil. Every batch is milled within hours of picking at temperatures below 27°C, delivering a low 0.2% acidity and retaining a high polyphenol content. The bottle is IGP certified and includes a unique traceability code so you can confirm the exact grove that supplied the olives.

How does Zagarello’s flavor profile influence cooking and finishing?

This oil presents a fresh, grassy aroma with peppery bite and bright notes reminiscent of almond and tomato leaf—ideal for finishing dishes where the oil’s character should shine. Use it raw to top salads, drizzle over pasta, or dip with warm bread to highlight its nuanced bitterness and pungency.

• Best as a finishing oil on grilled vegetables and roasted fish
• Add to soups or mashed potatoes just before serving for a fresh lift
• Serve simply with crusty bread to appreciate its almond and tomato-leaf notes

What production methods ensure Zagarello’s quality and authenticity?

The olives are Nocellara del Belice, harvested on a single estate and cold-pressed within hours to preserve antioxidants and flavor. Strict temperature control (under 27°C) during milling, plus a measured acidity of 0.2%, supports a genuine extra virgin classification and high polyphenol retention.

• Single-estate, single-varietal harvesting for consistent character
• Immediate cold-press milling to conserve volatile aromas and polyphenols
• Acidity tested and kept at 0.2%, far below the EVOO limit

How can I verify where this oil came from?
