These extra virgin olive oils are combined with 100% natural essential plant oils and perfect for cooking and flavoring meat, fish, vegetables, greens and cheese dishes.

Villa Manodori balsamicos are created from Trebbiano grapes and aged in a series of oak, chestnut and juniper barrels for nine years. The result is a rich, sweet & tart balsamic with a thick, syrupy consistency. Perfect as a glaze for steak, pork and poultry or drizzled over greens, vegetables and aged cheese. The dark cherry variety is longer aged in the wood of dark sour cherry trees, resulting in a balsamic that is infused with luscious cherry flavor. Try drizzled over vanilla ice cream or crème brulee for a luxurious dessert. Perfect also to marinate meat or pair with roasted pork, lamb or peppery greens.
