In the months of October and November, the olive harvest, when the olives are still slightly unripe, gives life to a new oil — a unique product to discover: Olio Novello, the Extra Virgin Olive Oil that, for its fragrance and aroma, has always conquered the most discerning palates of gourmets all over the world, eager to taste the new vintage production.
The native varieties Dritta (the most representative cultivar of the Abruzzo region, with light notes of bitterness and spiciness and an almond aftertaste) and Leccino (which gives the oil a fresh fruity scent of green apple) are harvested using the “manual picking” technique, which preserves both the integrity of the centuries-old olive groves and the superior quality of the olives.
Try it on meat, fish, grilled vegetables, or a warm freshly made bruschetta — or as the perfect dressing for a plate of Rustichella d’Abruzzo spaghetti with garlic, olive oil, and chili pepper!
