Grand Cru is Fonte di Foiano turned up to full volume. An intense, green, power-driven extra virgin olive oil, crafted primarily from Picholine — or a precision Tuscan blend depending on the harvest — and built for dishes that demand structure and depth.
Produced as a monocultivar Picholine, each harvest is tuned for maximum intensity and expression.
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.
Grand Cru is a natural match for bold, structured dishes, used raw or confidently in the kitchen.
For the adventurous: a drizzle over vanilla ice cream is surprisingly sublime — sweet meets savage.
This is not an everyday oil. It’s a statement.
Fonte di Foiano Grand Cru — bold Tuscany, bottled.
