From the commitment and care of the Leone family, in the countryside of Canosa di Puglia, come quality extra virgin olive oils such as Sabino Leone La Patraun extra virgin olive oil. The name La Patraun - dialectal name of Canosa - derives from the Padrona, meant as the country woman, the one who adapts, like this wonderful plant, to the most rural environments. A delicate yet characterful oil: The eternal feminine is embodied in this extra virgin that speaks of the simplicity of country life with its fruity taste of tomato leaf and artichoke. The grace-filled, olfactory/taste variegations elevate La Patraun to the rank of high craftsmanship;. This oil fascinates us for the sweetness with which it presents the characteristics of the Peranzana - a native Apulian cultivar - evoking the nature of the women of this land: bitter, spicy yet fruity with herbaceous hints.
