Product description

Lucarella Vivace Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Intensity and character for an authentic taste

Vivace Extra Virgin Olive Oil is an explosion of taste and character, designed for those who love strong and authentic flavors. From the first cold pressing of selected young and green olives, it stands out for its robust and harmonious profile, with a perfect balance between bitter and spicy.

Characteristics and taste

  • Colour: Deep green with golden reflections, a sign of freshness and superior quality.
  • Aroma: A bold, enveloping bouquet with notes of green tomato and freshly cut grass.
  • Taste: Lively and well-structured, with a pleasant initial bitterness followed by a persistent peppery finish, typical of extra virgin olive oils rich in polyphenols.

Properties and benefits

Vivace Extra Virgin Olive Oil is not only about intensity of taste, but also a true concentrate of well-being, thanks to its high content of valuable nutrients:

  • Rich in natural polyphenols and antioxidants, responsible for its characteristic bitter and spicy touch and for a powerful protective action against free radicals.
  • A source of monounsaturated fatty acids, which support heart and cardiovascular health.
  • Vitamins A, D, E and K, which support the immune system and the well-being of skin and eyesight.

Regular consumption helps counteract cellular inflammation and promote the overall well-being of the body.

Uses and pairings

Thanks to its bold character and strong personality, Vivace Extra Virgin Olive Oil is ideal for those who love to enhance flavors with a touch of intensity.

Recommended pairings:

  • Bruschetta and rustic bread: Perfect on warm bread or friselle for an explosion of flavor.
  • Legume and vegetable soups: A drizzle of raw oil enhances dishes such as fava beans and chicory or chickpea and bean soups.
  • Red meats and grilled dishes: Ideal for marinating and enriching beef tagliata, roasts, and mixed grills.
  • Pasta and savory first courses: It pairs perfectly with rustic sauces, orecchiette with turnip greens, and dishes based on mushrooms and truffles.
  • Aged cheeses and cured meats: It enhances the taste of pecorino, capocollo, and high-quality prosciutto crudo.

Production method

“Vivace” Extra Virgin Olive Oil is produced from olives harvested at the early stage of ripening, when they are naturally rich in polyphenols and antioxidants. Cold pressing takes place within just a few hours of harvest, helping preserve its nutritional and sensory qualities. The result is a pure extra virgin olive oil with a distinctive, unmistakable flavour.

Frequently asked questions (FAQ)

Why does Vivace Oil have a slightly bitter and spicy taste?
Bitterness and pungency are not flaws, but the most important certificates of excellence for a true EVOO. They indicate a very high concentration of polyphenols and oleocanthal, powerful natural antioxidants and anti-inflammatory agents. This robust profile is the direct result of pressing very fresh olives, making Olio Vivace a true elixir for well-being.
What does pressing "young and green" olives entail?
Early harvesting, i.e., at the beginning of the olive's ripening phase, results in a lower oil yield for the mill, but guarantees a significantly higher final quality. The still-green olives offer extremely low free acidity and give the oil that characteristic fresh and herbaceous aroma, preserving the maximum level of vitamins E and K.
What's the difference between Vivace oil and a delicate or commercial oil?
An oil with a "Lively" profile is a product with character, non-standardised and vibrant. While commercial oils tend to be flat to please all palates, L'Acropoli di Puglia's Vivace has a strong structure designed to enhance and balance powerfully flavoured foods, without "disappearing" within the dish.
How is the purity of cold pressing guaranteed?
To maintain the aromatic bouquet of green tomato and cut grass intact, our Vivace Oil is extracted solely by mechanical means, with temperatures constantly monitored and rigorously kept below 27°C. Milling takes place within a few hours of harvesting, preventing any oxidation or fermentation process of the olive.
Which dishes is Vivace Extra Virgin Olive Oil best suited for?
Thanks to its persistent aftertaste, it is best used raw on structured dishes. It is unsurpassed for marinating or finishing grilled red meats, for enhancing rustic legume soups (such as chickpeas and beans), for adding a flavor boost to orecchiette with turnip greens, and for accompanying platters of aged cheeses and local capocollo.
