Discover the excellence of olive oil with 'La Heredera', a premium EVOO produced by Bodega Gancedo with Arbequina olives grown in El Bierzo. The Atlantic climate, with less sun exposure and cooler temperatures, gives this oil a unique sensory profile: greener, herbaceous, and richer in polyphenols than Mediterranean Arbequinas.

Technical Sheet

Tasting Sheet

• Visual Phase:Intense green, more pronounced than Mediterranean Arbequina, due to less sun exposure and ripening in a cool climate. Light texture but with greater density.
• Olfactory Phase:Fresh and herbaceous profile with notes of freshly cut grass, olive leaf, green apple, under-ripe banana, almond tones, and slight hints of nuts.
• Gustatory Phase:Very smooth and velvety entry, without strong bitterness. Sweet and fruity flavour with hints of vegetal notes. Elegant spiciness in the throat due to high polyphenol content. Long persistence with an aftertaste of nuts and a spicy touch.

Pairing and Uses

La Heredera is incredibly versatile in gourmet and traditional cooking:

• Raw:Ideal for dressing salads, carpaccios, tartares, and gourmet toasts. Its elegant spiciness enhances without masking.
• Cold cooking:Perfect for gazpachos, salmorejos, vegetable creams, and emulsified sauces.
• Pairing:Exceptionally combines with fresh cheeses from Bierzo, grilled blue fish, white meats, and fruit desserts.
• Finishing:Add a final drizzle over hot dishes to enhance aromas without cooking the oil.
