DOP SARDINIA ORGANIC
Bio Sardinia DOP (of protected origin) extra virgin olive oil represents the harmonious blend of organic agriculture and the quality assurances required by DOP Sardinia certification.
The Bio DOP is primarily obtained from cultivar Bosana olives harvested at the early ripening stage. The result is a green fruity extra virgin olive oil with a robust flavor and pronounced notes of artichoke and thistle. The taste is distinguished by its intense tones and balanced by a pleasant bitterness and spiciness.
HOW IT IS PRODUCED
The olives are harvested using semi-mechanical methods so not to damage the trees and allow the olives to be picked at their right stage of ripeness.
The olives are hand-picked and selected in the countryside and taken to the milling plant during the day and no later than 10/12 hours after harvesting.
The milling takes place with a specific cold process that preserves the organoleptic qualities of the olives and enhances their flavour.
The Cultivar
Our DOP Sardinia Organic extra virgin olive oil is obtained by pressing the Bosana cultivar, cultivated in accordance with organic farming principles.
It is a cultivar of medium vigour, with an expansive growth habit and elliptical-lanceolate, flat, open-topped, medium-sized leaves. The drupes are medium-sized (2,5-3 g), slightly ovoid in shape, fairly symmetrical, with the greater diameter towards the apex. The surface is dotted with numerous small lenticels.
The veraison process starts at the apex and is fairly gradual. When ripe, the drupe’s colour is black. It is a medium-to-late cultivar, ripening between November and December in the Medio Campidano area.
HOW TO ENJOY THE TASTE BETTER
It is an intense product that blends perfectly with more resolute dishes from our kitchen. It is ideal for soups, or in its raw state on a Bruschetta.
