InIstria

Brtonigla-Verteneglio

Details:

Present again in the Flos Olei Guide (2024), the farm InIstria owned by Danijel Šlajner was founded in the late 1980s in Radini, in the very favourable district of Brtonigla. The estate currently consists of 14 hectares with 4,500 trees of several cultivars. 

The selection proposed to the Flos Olei panel is the Extra Virgin InIstria - Istarska Bjelica, which has a beautiful intense limpid golden yellow colour with slight green hues. Its aroma is fine and delicate, with vegetal hints of artichoke, chicory and lettuce, together with notes of aromatic herbs, especially mint and rosemary. Its taste is mellow and harmonic, with a vegetal flavour of country vegetables and an almond finish. Bitterness and pungency are present and well-balanced, with a sweet finish
