Founded in 1993 in Završje, Grožnjan, Vizintin olive oil appears in the guide for the first time. Milan Vizintin owns and runs two hectares of olive groves planted with 500 trees including Buža, Carbonaza, Istarska Bjelica, Leccino and Pendolino. This yearÂ’s harvest saw seven tonnes of olives and the production of 800 litres of extra virgin olive oil. The selection Vizintin has fine clarity and a beautiful golden yellow colour with a hint of green. It opens powerfully and with great complexity on the nose, with nuances of green tomato, artichoke, wild chicory and fresh cut grass. It is full and very fine on the palate, characterized by notes of fresh field vegetables, lettuce, mint, garden-sage and rosemary. Bitterness and sharpness are well-balanced. This oil is an excellent companion to crudités, lentil and bean salads, baked mussels, porcini mushroom soup, swordfish, crustaceans, roast fish and braised meats.
