Description
“The Bastidettes” is an extraordinary olive oil in many ways. At the gates of the Camargue, away from rocky terrain, the olive trees are planted in hedges spaced 1,5 m (instead of 5 I usually) and the olives are harvested with a raised grape harvester ! This innovative method makes it possible to reach acidity levels at 0,17 versus 0,8 for extra virgin oils. These new methods allowed the Domaine des Bastidettes to win many gold medals in the agricultural competition.

Green fruitiness of the Bastidettes
Green fruitiness usually defines oils that descend from green olives picked a few days before they are fully ripe.. The oil is produced on a basis of green olives, picked early in the season.
On the aroma side, l’olive oil will give a dominance of fresh grass. We will find aromas of artichoke, green pepper. This category of olive oil can present pungency and sometimes bitterness.

This olive oil is excellent. Very fruity at first, it leaves a little bitterness on the finish. I discovered this oil during a vacation in Aix en Provence, since then I only use it.
I am happy to be able to order it via the internet because I live in Belgium.
A 1L container would suit me.
Too bad the extra fig vinegar is not available.

Deliciously scented, gently floral and full-bodied, wake up your salads, make them incomparable, a few more generous drops or fillets make up for an average salad or a bland avocado and tuna pâté, in delicious dishes.
I greedily recommend
