From the name of the founder comes the flagship of this mill, Sabino Leone’s Terra di Bari "Don Gioacchino" Gran Cru extra virgin olive oil in a gift box. Silkscreen printed wooden box containing a 500ML single bottle of Sabino Leone’s Don Gioacchino.Just like his father Gioacchino, this oil is characterized by a strong, austere, aristocratic and restrained temperament, with a virile and classy spirit, and an authoritative fruity taste of green olive, green almond, and olive leaf.This oil fascinates us for the disruptive force with which it presents the particular characteristics of Coratina, the queen cultivar of the region: an intense yet balanced taste, with elegantly balanced bitter and spicy peaks.
Tasting Notes
Terra di Bari "Don Gioacchino" Grand Cru is limpid, with a beautiful intense golden yellow color. The nose is fine and enveloping, full of balsamic hints of mint and rosemary, with a clear hint of artichoke and chicory. Elegant and complex on the palate, it tastes of lettuce and closes with rich notes of almond, black pepper and cinnamon. Powerful bitterness and strong, harmonious spiciness.
