SABINA DOP-CERTIFIED
Sabina is the beautiful region Northeast of Rome, land of the oldest olive trees in Europe. Superb olive oil has been produced in the tranquil hills of Sabina since long before the founding of Rome. Once the Romans discovered it, the oil of Sabina became the olive oil of The Eternal City. Since then, it has been one of the most sought after oils in all of Italy.
Our villa is surrounded by 1700 olive trees, from which we produce our own Sabina DOP-certified extra virgin olive oil, along with carefully selected local growers. Pressed and unfiltered, our EVOO has a pleasant fruity aroma and an assertive yet gently sweet taste.
WHAT IS EXTRA VIRGIN
OLIVE OIL
EVOO is the highest possible grade of olive oil. According to the International Olive Oil Council, the most important international organization to set olive oil standards, to be “extra virgin” an olive oil must come 100% from olives, must have no more than 0.8% acidity and meet other physical/chemical requirement, and must have no defects.
Only the best European extra virgin olive oils can be DOP certified (Protected Designation of Origin). This is the European Union seal of quality to designate a protected geographical status, which means that a product must be produced within a specific region and according to specific standards and techniques typical of that region. Only those European foods with the longest tradition and the best quality can apply to obtain the DOP status.
The safest way to get top quality and great tasting olive oil is to buy a DOP-certified olive oil, so look for the symbol on the label, which guarantees that the oil has been produced following strict guidelines.
ORDER OUR OLIVE OIL
Our olive oil is great for cooking, on top of salads, for dipping bread and even with desserts. It also makes great gifts for the holidays or even host/hostess gift when going to dinner at someone’s home. We can ship our olive oil from Italy directly to you in the US and select other locations. Our Sabina DOP Extra Virgin Olive Oil starts at 14 Euros per bottle (500 ml), but drops for larger orders. Standard case size is 12 bottles, but half orders of 6 bottles are available.
*Due to high demand and increasing popularity, we have officially sold out of our 2021/22 season olive oil! Now is the best time to order our 2022/23 season. Once we receive our DOP designation and bottle, we’ll be ready to ship. We plan on shipping mid to late December, in time for holiday gift giving. While we have always met this timeframe, it’s dependent on weather and other issues we don’t control. All orders received will be from our new harvest.
Please note that all pricing is in Euros.
