ERBARIA: refined and very balanced blend of Termite, Cima di Melfi and Circella
A symphony of flavors born from the union of three prestigious olive varieties: Termite, Cima di Melfi, and Circella, each bringing its unique character to this exceptional blend.
Termite , with its deep roots in medieval history, gives the oil a historical dimension and a rich taste. Circella , recognizable by its bright red hue when ripe, adds a touch of color and character. As for Cima di Melfi , it is renowned for its slightly fruity aroma and more intense taste, with notes of green olive and a perfect balance between bitterness and spiciness.
A true celebration of the Apulian terroirs, ERBARIA promises an unparalleled sensory experience because, even in small quantities, this oil adds a distinctive character to every dish, bringing the festive atmosphere of Puglia. Ideal for enhancing both classic and modern dishes.
Ad Olivetum Erbaria
A very pronounced olfactory phase , with green tomato making its appearance, accompanied by the surprising lemon leaf and notes of fresh grass.
The taste phase presents a high but very brief bitterness, because it quickly gives way to a sustained and persistent pepper (and not pepper) spiciness. A very harmonious, balanced and very fresh whole.
