HARVEST : The olives are harvested at their optimal ripeness using electric combs and collection nets, ensuring the utmost care for both the trees and the fruit. Immediately after picking, they are transported to the mill to preserve their freshness and delicate aromatic qualities.
The olives are then carefully washed, crushed and slowly malaxed at a low temperature. This cold extraction process preserves their natural compounds while revealing the full richness and complexity of their aromas. Once the ideal malaxation time has been reached, the oil is gently separated from the water and olive solids, resulting in an exceptionally pure extra virgin olive oil that faithfully reflects the unique terroir of Château Léoube.
AT THE TABLE : Azur olive oil reveals a generous green fruit character that remains present even after cooking.
TASTING NOTES : Generous green fruit aromas with a touch of elegant bitterness. Azur Selection by Château Léoube combines intensity and flavor. It can be enjoyed both raw and heated, bringing delicate flavors to cooked dishes.
