Sabino Basso Extra Virgin Olive Oil DOP PENISOLA SORRENTINA 500 ml
$30.00
A premium, 100% Italian olive oil produced from the "Minucciola" cultivar, a variety typical of the Sorrento Peninsula in the Campania region of Italy. This oil carries the DOP (Denominazione di Origine Protetta, or Protected Designation of Origin) certification, which guarantees its authenticity, quality, and origin, adhering to strict production standards set by the European Union.
- Straw yellow color with occasional greenish reflections, sometimes appearing slightly veiled.
- The oil offers a delicate yet distinctive fruity scent, marked by hints of rosemary, mint, and lemon—flavors characteristic of the Sorrento Peninsula’s Mediterranean terroir.
- Sweet and gentle on the palate, with low levels of bitterness and spiciness. These subtle notes blend harmoniously with the prominent aromatic herb undertones, creating a balanced and refined flavor profile.
This oil is ideal for enhancing Mediterranean dishes. It pairs beautifully with pasta, white meats, fish, and vegetables, and is particularly suited for drizzling over grilled seafood or salads—especially those featuring Sorrento’s famous lemons, like lemon salads or desserts such as lemon sorbet.
