Tasting note and pairing
Pairing
A wonderfully fine oil, especially recommended for vegetables, mayonnaise, eggs, salads, fish and white meat. It is also a perfect ingredient for pastries to replace butter, thanks to its incredible density and volume. It is versatile, it does not mask the flavors of the dishes and it is recommended for hot and cold cooking, both sweet and savoury. A must.
Both Fontclara Argudell and Fontclara Arbequina also work very well in one of the favorite formats of a large part of the visitors who stop at Finca Zanotelli day after day: raw, with good local bread, giving the palate an explosion of Nuances and flavors in their purest form, without decorations, without masks: authentic extra virgin olive oil.

Opinions
Good for the soul… and for the stomach!
“At the risk of sounding mystical, I would say that visiting Finca Fontclara is good for the soul. And on top of that, if we finish with an oil tasting and an aperitif, it's also great for the stomach!”
The essence of Emporda
“Fontclara extra virgin olive oil is able to condense in a single drop what, for many, is the essence of Empordà: its flavor, its aromas, its character… In short: its soul.”
A place to disconnect
“Visiting the Fontclara estate is, without a doubt, something that should be experienced at least once in a lifetime. It is like entering another world, the perfect place to disconnect from reality among the olive trees.”
An oil capable of changing any dish
“A few drops of Fontclara extra virgin olive oil are capable of giving a new dimension to any dish: they add incredible nuances to simple steamed vegetables! At home it is essential.”
