The Soul of the Sierra: Our Villalonga variety<\/strong><\/h2>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”40px”][vc_column_text css=””]\n

In the heart of the Sierra de Enguera<\/strong>, where mountain cultivation challenges the slopes and the Mediterranean climate becomes purer, our Villalonga variety EVOO is born. Considered the jewel of the Spanish Levant, this olive reaches a unique expression<\/strong> in our estates, creating a high-end extra virgin olive oil crafted for the most discerning palates.<\/p>\n

A High-Altitude and Characterful Terroir<\/h4>\n

Our Villalonga olive trees do not grow just anywhere. They are planted in stony, calcareous soils, surrounded by an ecosystem of pines, rosemary, and thyme. This mountain dryland environment subjects the tree to moderate water stress, forcing the fruit to concentrate more polyphenols and antioxidants, resulting in an oil with superior structure and stability compared to lowland areas.<\/p>\n

The Villalonga is not just an olive; it is a tree with a very distinct personality that adapts perfectly to the Mediterranean climate.<\/b><\/p>\n

The Tree:<\/strong> It is vigorous with an upright stature. It has a dense canopy and a remarkable ability to adapt to calcareous soils. Although resistant to cold, its \u201cweak point\u201d is sensitivity to extreme drought, so it benefits from the sea breeze and a moderate rainfall regime.<\/p>\n

The Leaf:<\/strong> Usually elliptic-lanceolate in shape, with a very characteristic grayish-green color.<\/p>\n

The Fruit:<\/strong> Medium to large in size with a slightly asymmetrical, ovoid shape. It ripens early, usually beginning to change color (veraison) in late October or early November.<\/p>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/3″][vc_single_image image=”749″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center” css=””][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=”70px”][vc_row_inner content_placement=”middle” gap=”35″][vc_column_inner width=”1\/3″][vc_single_image image=”795″ img_size=”full” css=””][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”2\/3″][vc_column_text css=””]\n
