Tasting Notes

Altevrede Frantoio Medium is well balanced with aromas of green and ripe olive, olive leaf, artichoke and apple.
History & Culture
Proudly from the Karoo, our olive oil is loaded with personality and flavour. Our handpicked olives are from trees grown in rich shale soils. Pristine mountain waters, hot dry summers and cold winters provide ideal conditions for the ultimate Extra Virgin Olive Oil.
