The Cornicabra Reserve is highly aromatic and contains developed layers of flavor with distinctive fruity characteristics and notes of apricot, peach, and strawberry plus a sophistacated floral finish. Lingering pepper. Limited batch production. High fruitiness scores.
Our partner producer (SAOV) in Portugal is using a high vaccum during malaxation to remove all of the oxygen in this processing stage where the oil spends the most time and is most prone to oxidation. This cutting edge and very technical method preserves the phenolic content, the overall chemistry plus the flavor characteristics while reducing other oxidation markers.
