Tuscan Intensity, No Compromise
Grand Cru is Fonte di Foiano turned up to full volume.
An intense, green, power-driven extra virgin olive oil, crafted solely from Picholine cultivar — and built for dishes that demand structure and depth. A very high polyphenol oil putting this EVOO
right up there on the Nutraceutical scale.
Cultivar
Produced as a monocultivar Picholine, each harvest is tuned for maximum intensity and expression.
Tasting Profile
Colour & Texture: Intense golden yellow with greenish nuances. Texture is crisp, clean and full bodied
Aroma: Bold and expansive. Expect artichoke, wild chicory and fresh-cut grass, layered with green almond and balsamic notes of mint, rosemary and sage.
Palate: Full, complex and unapologetic. Flavours of lettuce and thistle lead into black pepper, a hint of cinnamon and almond, finishing with firm bitterness and a long, decisive spice.
This oil doesn’t fade — it lingers.
Food Pairing — Built for Big Flavours
Grand Cru is a natural match for bold, structured dishes, used raw or confidently in the kitchen.
- Meat & Fish: Roasted beef, BBQ beef , braised wild game, grilled tuna
- Soups & Pasta: Tuscan bean soups, meat ragù, shell pasta with chickpeas, rocket and Parmesan

For the adventurous: a drizzle over vanilla ice cream, with cracked pepper it is surprisingly sublime — sweet meets savage.
This is not an regular oil.
It’s a statement.
